Cathedral Windows W/ Accuquilt Double Wedding Ring Die
 

Anyone know if it is possible to use the Double Wedding Ring Die to make the Cathedral Windows quilts? I have the die, and the shapes of the center and the melons look the same to me, but I have never done the cathedral windows pattern. Any suggestions or problems that you immediately foresee?

I don't think it will work. For one thing, when you fold the sides over the center block, the other pieces are not going to fit. If you look on the tutorial section here, Eddie has a great tutorial that makes the Cathedral windows easy peasy.

A real cathedral windows quilt uses a folding technique, using a bias edge to get the curves. When you are done making the squares, no additional quilting is needed because of the thickness of the fabric layers (although you can if you want)
Here is a good tutorial for making one by machine:

You can get the 'look' of the quilt by using the die, or rolling the edges on a 10 minute block, but it's really not the same thing.

I just went to site suggested and would really like to save it somehow...how do I do that at this site?

go to thread tools at the top of this page. choose Print Version and you can print it out... or you can copy/paste into another document if you like

with the old version of this forum, it was really easy to create bookmarks. It's a few more steps now, but not too bad.
