    Default Wedding ring quilt

    I am going to make a double wedding ring quilt and I miscalculated amounts of fabric I needed. I have too much, for the rings. Does anyone know if there is scrapyard boarder that I can use for this quilt.
    would appreciate any advice. Becky.

    I would use the extra fabric as part of the backing to blend everything together.

    Yes, use the extra fabric on the back. Did you Google Wedding Ring Quilts and look at the photos?? I get inspiration looking at what others have done with a particular pattern I am working with.

    Thanks to both, I never thought of that. I will see what I can come up with.

    What do you think of my using a scrap binding using all the colors?

    I personally don't see the problem with having more fabric then needed for a quilt. That's how you get a stash.

    I love scrappy bindings and use them quite often. I think it adds interest to the binding.
