I made this to give to my daughter and new son-in-law , they're getting married May,21.
Along with paying for a big wedding of course lol I wanted to give her something made by us .
So I made this and her Daddy is making a shadow box out of oak to put it in for hanging.
But I WILL NEVER try this again !! I just thank GOD I didn't have to make a big quilt !!! lol
But I don't think it's to BAD for a beginner on quilting !!!
I bit off more than I could chew on this project tho !!
I am definitely getting better !!!
:thumbup: :thumbup:

Very nice! She'll love it and display it proudly, I know.

It's beautiful and I love the symbolism!

I think you did a great job! I have a friend who has been quilting for 10 years and she is pulling her hair out on a double wedding ring quilt! She keeps threatening to give it to me to finish for her....no way!

Amazing work, pat yourself on the back well done! I can only make it in my dreams :lol: :lol: She will love it. :thumbup:

nice just a idea take to reception have guests sign in middle on white

Thank you !!!
I know exactly how she feels because none of the arks seem to be long enough !!! I had to find a you-tube video to watch that helped me sooooo much !!!
Because I had no clue what to do when they didn't match up lol
But that was my first and last !! Took me 3 days!!!!
I am to stubborn to let it get me down and I will NOT give up !!! lol

OH !!!! what a good idea !!!! ty so much !!

Perfect wedding gift!:)

oh no!!! DWR is my next project & my daughter wants a queen size quilt. I'll have to look for that you tube. I have templates from Shar Jerenson & Eleanor Burn's Egg Money Quilts book so I'm "fixin" to make that quilt, lol!

Beautiful!!!!

well you go girl !!!! I wish you ALLLLLLL the luck !!!

Wow - very very nice!

beautiful quilt

In their eyes it will be a masterpiece! Well done.

There is now a fusible way of making double wedding ring which makes it much easier. It's the only way I make them now.

you did a very nice job.

I'm impressed, you say you are a beginner but your quilt is not. Great job.

Looks GREAT!

soooooooo pretty. they're gonna love it. i do!

It s gorgeous. What a great gift.

Thank you !! I just started quilting in Dec. when I joined here ..asking for HELP !!! :lol:

Beautiful. I've never tried a wedding ring, because it is very tedious and hard to do. My mom loved making them and just sewing them all by hand. eeks!

I like the idea of guests signing it though.

Looks wonderful. I'm sure they will treasure it. Congratulations on the new "son".

Very pretty, you did a good job.

Very lovely! You did a great job.

What a perfect gift. The fact that you and your husband are making something by hand will mean so much and will last forever.

i know your pain (see my avatar).

Beachhound, Patrice J has a great tute!!!!!!!!!!! I'll be right back with it

Original poster- it's lovely!!!!!!!!! My son just got married and I made them a wall quilt. We spent money going to Hawaii but I wasn't the BRIDE'S mom lol

For the life of me I can't find Patrice J's DWR tute. I'm sorry!

I think you did a great job, beginner or not. I haven't tried this pattern yet, but thinking of a small one too. Nice job!

wow ! awsome !

Very Nice.. Always wanted to make double wedding ring quilt but dont have the nerve to.

What a wonderful gift! What we do for our kiddos...never ends!

looks great. i started a pillow sham with those but put it in my give away stuff before i ever finished it!

So nice!

Great job!! The only way to get better is to bite off more than you "thought" you could chew.

So beautiful. It looks hard, but you did a great job and I'm sure they'll love it. The shadow box sounds really terrific.

GORGEOUS! You did such a great job! Oh, and I LOVE that you and her Daddy have a hand in making her such a precious gift! This will be so treasured!

I'm just finishing a DWR Queen size for my granddaughters wedding in June I'm now doing the quilting. It went together very easy but must say was very time consuming, also made pillow shams.

That's very pretty. Oh, and I too live in KY. :)

It is so pretty. Even though it was hard, you learned a lot
