Default Acrylic templates for DWR

Is there a set of templates (acrylic) available for making a double wadding ring quilt with pieced rings?

I have the McCalls pattern that you can print out the paper ones, but I'd really prefer the acrylic ones that I can cut around with a rotary cutter.

I have one that's a "Double Wedding Ring Template Set" for a 17" diameter with 7 templates, by Marti Michell. The product code on it is 8017.

Simplicity Pieced Double Wedding Ring Template
http://www.nancysnotions.com/product/simpli+ez+double+wedding+ring+template.do

Also, here is one where the 3-in-1 template for the inside, melon & square are separated into 3 different templates. Of course, you pay more than twice the price to get the separate templates, but in case you're interested in that, here's a link:

Traditionally, double wedding ring has fairly small pieces (smaller than a 2" square) in the rings. I can't picture cutting around an acrylic template for something that small.

Check out quiltinaday.com - Eleanor Burns has them. I believe the set is about $18.00 or $20.00. I just gave my set to my sister since I live is So. Cal. and she lives in WA, and I have the GO die.

Oops - that is a wedding ring set, not the DWR.

I found these yesterday. They're probably expensive compared to others but I'm keen to get them. The second video on the same page is very good, explains a lot.

I bought my set from John Flynn. You will want to get the small Olfa 18mm cutter to cut around these smaller templates especially with the one with the curved side.

I just ordered this yesterday! They are a little more expensive than some others, but as Gay said, there are videos on YouTube to watch

I figure I will watch the videos over and over again until I get the courage up to start. Then I can refer back to the videos as I go. Super excited to get these!!

I have the the same acrylic set as Annaquilts from Sharlene Jorgenson. I made a DWR in blues and yellows for my daughter many years ago but these are the best to use. I would cut pieces in my free time and put them in a pizza box and when I would have time I would sew a block or two. These templates are worth buying.
