Sunday chat starts at 2 pm, eastern USA time.
we're going to attempt a traditional wedding ring. techniques used will include VERY SIMPLE paper piecing, and joining curved seams. we will start from scratch so i can demonstrate different ways to make the templates and show you how to adapt the pattern to make a solid center instead of one with seams running through it.
the pattern is attached. BEFORE YOU PRINT, make sure to set page scaling to "none", then clicked the "advanced" tab and select "print as image".
you will need:
backing fabric (one fat quarter is more than enough)
scraps for the rings
straight pins
marking pen
hand needle and thread (in case you decide to baste)
seam ripper (probably won't need it, but it doesn't hurt to have one handy :lol: )
freezer paper
thin cardboard or manila folder(s)
sharp scissors for cutting out templates
sewing scissors for cutting the fabric, trimming threads, etc
hope to see you there. :P
