This quilt has so many possibilities!

I think you can get by with 2 inch binding if you don't fold it in half. I used one and 7/8 inch binding on a quilt and folded it so only 1/4 inch was not doubled and sewed that on the front and then folded the rest so it was doubled when I sewed it to the backing. You did a beautiful job on this quilt.
back of double wedding ring quilt. This doesn't show the binding.
