DWR done at last (mistake and all)
 
1 Attachment(s)
My daughter's bridal shower is just around the corner. A dear friend worked endless hours to help me complete this DWR for my daughter. We both say never again to the method we used to make the quilt (Rings that Bind). All said and done...it's a gift of love not a blue ribbon contender.

Love is all that matters! It's beautiful

I'm sure your daughter will be delighted with it. ....and to think, it's done BEFORE the shower!

Can you expound upon why the Rings That Bind method was a never-again'er?? I bought the book & template set but haven't dived in yet. Any of your hard-earned advice would be appreciated.

It is beautiful. I love the heart in the center and your colors.

You & your friend's hard work paid off in this beautiful quilt! It will be well loved by your daughter and son-in-law!
Good work!

Just beautiful.

I recognize the heart inside the stipple from my embroidery machine. It really makes this quilt special. I used it on a quilt for one of DGDs. Your DWR is beautiful and if there are any mistakes they don't show.

It's beautiful. I love the heart quilting.

it looks great from here. congrats on finishing on time

solstice3 10-08-2012 03:31 AM

In theory it is a lovely method...a quilt as you go. Putting the finished blocks together was a bear! Probably someone with more patience and experience wouldn't mind it as much

heather1949 10-08-2012 04:06 AM

Well its just beautiful, and they will think its just beautiful because you made it, well done.

Beautiful quilt. Did you do the quilting in the center of the blocks on your embroider machine?

I'm sure your daughter will love it. I like the hearts in the center of the rings.

sylvia77 10-08-2012 05:57 PM

I can relate! The dwr has been my most requested pattern from my customers, if I have to do another one it will be too soon!

ItsJustMe 10-09-2012 05:16 AM

Absolutely gorgeous! She will love it! Great job!

Cindy60545 10-09-2012 05:34 AM

I think you did a great job! I have that book, but haven't made it yet. DD has requested it, but I'm not in any hurry to make it, cuz she doesn't even have a boyfriend! But...I might make one for myself first.

coopah 10-09-2012 05:35 AM

It's beautiful and it's done!! Amazing! I, too, am working on a DWR and will not repeat the experience. It's going to be basted by a LAQ this week! You must be giddy with glee at having it totally done!! Kudos to you and your friend.n :thumbup: :thumbup:

carolynjo 10-09-2012 06:35 AM

Beautiful quilt, best wishes for your daughters wedding.

CAJAMK 10-09-2012 08:33 AM

That is what truly counts is the love involved .....not the skills. You are a good mom.

MimiBug123 10-09-2012 09:56 AM
