Thank you for sharing, This past summer I had the privilege of completing a dream for a very special lady and her family. A Wedding Ring quilt that had been in the making for 70 years. When I received the top, all the melons were gone and onlly the rings were sewn together...I laughed when I pulled it our of the bag...the Holey Quilt. Yes, I unsewed all the rings and sewed in the melons and completed the top. Many helping hands made it possible to complete this project - the quilt brought comfort to all that were involved in making it possible for the family to cuddle under a wedding ring quilt. When I scrolled through the instructions made possible by you....I know just making the instruction possible for everyone was very time time consuming and I admire your efforts in sharing how to make a Wedding Ring quilt. It also brought back the warm feeling I had while complete the project. Thank you.

:lol: with joy! But i've forgotten your name. This is a wonderful A+ lesson. The writing is clear and the photos are so clear and illustrate the point perfectly. As I looked through it I had questions, but before my brow even began to wrinkle you answered them in the next paragraph or photo. This is the best nugget i've found on-line about quilting. I've been wanting to do this quilt but haven't tried as I thought it would be a long and tedious process and that I wouldn't get the curves right and nothing would fit together. Now I'm going to make a WR quilt for sure and soon. I have many little grand nieces and nephews (no grand children yet) all of whom have been promised a quilt, at least in my mind. Foundation piecing is great. I'm making Storm at Sea now with foundation piecing and it is going together like a dream. Thanks a lot. I'll try to tune in on the 4th. Anne

I received a notice saying the Wedding Ring class was coming up, and there was a repeat of the original. I clicked on it, found an icon that said Download, but nothing happened.
There was a series of photos, which by the way were wonderful. Was that the download I was expecting? I thought it was going to be text, like the class on paper.
I'm so new to all this, I just don't know what to expect. But everyone is so kind, I'm catching on.
Thanks a bunch!

My friend helped another friend clean out her mother's garage, found a 1930's wedding ring quilt, neatly folded, with what she thought was a mouse "stain" all the way through. She's not a quilter, and neither is her friend, so she sent it to me. I soaked it and changed the water for a week, then repaired it where necessary, quilted it for her and sent it back. She was delighted, even though she had meant it to be a gift for me. I took a picture of it, lettuce green squares even!
Thanks again.
Thanks again.
