First time for curves

This is my first double wedding ring and first time for sewing curves...lots of them!!! I just finished piecing it last night and am getting it ready to send to my favorite LA quilter to do her magic. This is going to be a wedding gift for a dear friend's son and his bride. Sure hope they like it.

I like the scrappy batiks for this wedding ring quilt.

Thank you. The directions I have for it uses feathers but I'm leaving the quilting up to my LA'er....whatever she thinks would look good.

Your quilt is beautiful and it will be well loved. Please show it again after quilting. I think leaving the decision up to the LAer is the best way to go - it would be for me!

They will love it. It's just beautiful. Just an idea - I had mine quilted with 4 hearts with points meeting,(hope that makes sense) done in the center of each ring. Mine was also a wedding gift and I thought the hearts were nice.
