What's the name of this pattern.

This is a photo of me (right), my mum (left) and my late nan (centre). My Nan taught me to sew and it wasn't until she passed away that I got into quilting, I'd really like to re-create some of her quilts, maybe find a way to incorporate a few designs into one. Does anyone know what this pattern is? Usually I'm really good at searching things but I have no idea what to search for to find patterns.

Looks to me like a double wedding ring quilt.

Thank you Mistys Mum, that looks exactly like it.

Gee, I think you'd be wise to start off with a different quilt of hers. Double Wedding Ring isn't such an easy pattern to execute. Tackle this one last---or as one of the last ones. I don't know what other "difficult" patterns Nan may have made (Lonestar, Feathered Star, Mariner's Compass, New York Beauty, etc. are also difficult.) Good luck to you!

I won't be starting it for a while, I have a list of everything I want to make and wanted to add this to it. Nan was a really good quilter so one of them are easy. The other one I have (which I physically have, not just a photo) is one with 4 fans meeting with a tiny 9 patch in the middle of 4, they're all curved. My family have so e of her other quilts and ill take photos next time I go up and see them. I want to do this one with the rings in batiks graduating in colour from top to bottom. I also want to really take my time with it and make sure I get it perfect.
she made one like this that looks fairly easy. |
Hello Chloe, that's a lovely photo of you all, and your nan's quilt. If you google Rings that Bind by Cheryl Phillips, you will find a video on youtube that shows an easy way to make the Db Wedding Ring, and once you understand the how-tos' you will realise how you can have a variety of styles, and even sizes.
Happy stitching and please post photos for us to see Cheers |

I haven't seen how you actually do the pattern but she makes it look very easy. Handy too because I was thinking of trying to use the blocks as a border.

Hi Chloe, the photo of you, your mom, and your Nan is adorable. The love shows through.

Your Nan was a very talented quilter. Your family is so blessed to have all those beautiful quilts. This is just a suggestion, but I would take pictures of all of them that I could, and add pictures of her and make a memory picture Album. Here is a web-site where you can find hundreds of quilt patterns quilters cache Thank you for sharing the pictures of your Nan's quilts.
