scrappy wedding ring quilt
if you want to make a truly scrappy wedding ring quilt, how do you determine the corner blocks that are usually solid colors?
|
I prefer a controlled scrappy. Something that has a bit of structure. I would make all the 4 patches identical, have a single background color for the melons & centers and make the arcs all scrappy.

I made a scrappy double wedding ring for my nephew's wedding.. well it was probably what PaperPrincess called a "controlled scrappy". I bought 11 different yellow and gray fabrics to give the scrappy feel. Then I used the same 2 fabrics for the connecting corners. But I did not use the connecting corner fabrics anywhere else in the rings. (at least I tried not to :) )
I am going to do another one (to keep for me) I bought a fat quarter bundle but I don't know what I will use for the connecting corners. I will be watching this thread for some good input from the board. (these guys are awesome!!) [ATTACH=CONFIG]545430[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]545431[/ATTACH] |
Meyerst, did you get the DWR back yet from the LAQ? I hope I didn't miss your final unveiling! I loved following your posts and love your quilt.

Meyert, This quilt is truly gorgeous. I would love to make one - especially scrappy, but lack the courage.

Make it to suit yourself. More than one way to do the same thing. Your quilt your way.

Meyert, I love your quilt!!! I didn't realize you had finished it, or at least the top....I know it isn't finished until the binding is on... :) !!! You have to be so proud! It is just beautiful!
