Outstanding quilt. Your fabrics are so perfect for a DWR. It looks beautifully pieced and quilted.

Very nicely done! I also purchased the Craftsy kit and class. Have not made mine yet. Also bought The Creative Grid template. Did you use paper piecing for the rings? What size are the rings? I thought they were bigger with the Creative Grid but I guess I forgot. I like the roundness of the CG DWR, rather than Gail Kessler's, which look more squarish. Now you have me eager to start. Thanks for posting. Check out Gail's website. She has a pretty 4 ring wall hanging which she sells for around $40.

Double Wedding rings
 
[QUOTE=Daffy Daphne;7337662]This is the quilt taught by Gail Kessler in her Craftsy class, using fabrics licensed by the tv series. Mine is cut with Judy Niemeyer's Creative Grids templates. They make smaller rings than the ones in Gail's pattern, so I had to make 56 rings rather than the pattern's 42 to end up with a king size quilt. A good trade-off, I think--more time stitching, but faster and probably more accurate cutting. Quilted on my Babylock Tiara.

How do you use the CG templates with Gail's method? I have the CG templates but have not used them cos I do not know how to use them. Do you need to get Judy Niemeyer's foundation paper to sew up your DWR? Any help is much appreciated. Thank you
Sandra
