I started a double wedding ring quilt between Christmas and New Year's. This is my second one and I don't remember the first one being this much work :D :D :shock: :shock:
But I have powered through and I am now starting to put the rings together. today I got about 1/4th of the top pieced.. so I wanted to play show and tell. I still have to secure the connecting corners but I am feeling accomplished... only 65 more rings to go ha ha So here I am playing show and tell thanks for looking [ATTACH=CONFIG]588594[/ATTACH] |
really awesome quilt
|
Very pretty - love the black background!
|
Beautiful, meyert! This is a challenging pattern, for sure. Looks like you nailed it with this tho I've never seen your first one.
|
Nice start.
|
Nice work!
|
It is going to be beautiful!
|
Really beautiful. That black sets it off nicely.
|
Super. BrendaK
|
this is beautiful. I always look at DWRs but I don't have them on my bucket list. I like looking at yours.
|
The black is great in your quilt. It certainly will give you a unique opportunity for your quilting. So, enjoy finishing your beautiful quilt and show us the finished project. I, for one, will be anxious to see it.
|
It looks awesome...I love how your rings really pop against your background fabric.
|
DWR is one I would luv to do...but I think maybe out of this world for my expertise level!! I am curious however to know if anyone here on QB has made the DWR using E Burns method? I would be interested in those who have. Please share!!!! TY!!
|
You can do this because so far it is marvelous!!!
|
Thanks for sharing this beautiful quilt with us. A little show and tell is good for the weary quilter.
|
Beautiful! I admire you for making not one but 2 ..

Wow

Wish I were as brave as you are! I'll never have the nerve to do a quilt like yours.
|
Thank you everyone for your kinds words... they are good for the weary quilter
The background is actually dark blue, but it does look black in this photograph Sew Freak - I have never seen the Eleanor Burns DWR method. I am using Shar Jorgenson's templates and I really like them. They came with a great little book and she has videos on YouTube that I can watch over and over again until I "get it". I need to watch the videos many many times :) |
Super cool. Stay with it.
|
Your quilt is beautiful. I can't wait to see it completed.
|
looking fine!! Really like the black background!
|
Wow....looks great!
|
You have made a gorgeous quilt. I just love it, and you are very good at this.
|
Beautiful! If I were you I'd want to 'show & tell' too - lovely quilt you have there!
|
Your efforts are visible. This is already so lovely.
|
Very pretty and love the black background.
|
Ha, ha. I have had Shar's templates for at least 20 years. I don't think the package is even open! I always wanted to make the DWR but once my mother gave me one, I just never seem to get to it. I even have the templates for a smaller size and have cut out the version where the arcs are one piece. And that's as far as I've come on it in over 20 years! Boy, what a sad:( testimony about a quilt that I really like. And now, in my senior years, I think I'm intimidated by how it's put together. Oh well, maybe someday.
Yours is very nice, btw. |
Absolutely gorgeous so far.
|
Wow this is georgeous! I love the colors. You are doing a wonderful job, you should show and tell. Keep on posting I can’t wait to see the rest of this amazing quilt!
|
It's stunning, but not one for me to make.

This is very pretty. The black background really pops the rings.

Certainly looks like a lot of hard work and many hours you have put into it!! Going to be stunning.
