Wedding Ring Quilts...


I spent the day with my friend Linda.
We have decided to meet once a month to piece our
Double Wedding Ring Quilts


Today I went over to Linda's and we cut and pieced on her kitchen table.
She made us yummy grilled tuna sandwiches for lunch.
(Home Canned Tuna......the BEST)

Here is how our day went:

We are using Sharlene Jorgenson's Book & Templates
Double Wedding Ring Quilts

Linda and I started these quilts more than a dozen years ago,
so we had to re-acquaint ourselves with what we have done so far.

We are rotary cutting the individual pieces, using acrylic templates.




This is Linda...
She is looking at the back side of her unit to determine just exactly how she pieced it all those years ago.




These Double Wedding Rings are not difficult, but require an accurate 1/4 inch seam.





Linda has all of her units sorted out...
She will spend the afternoon piecing those " football " shaped units.





This pattern also requires some curved piecing, which is only a gentle curve, and easily accomplished.




This quilt is a perfect opportunity for Linda & I to use these depression era fabrics we have been collecting for so many years.




This is my part of the kitchen table...

I have one Ring pieced.
My templates are pink acrylic, on the right side of the ring.
I am cutting those tiny pieces and organizing them into arc units.

I still have lots of cutting to do before I can even think about piecing any units.

Linda will come over to the Thread Shed next month.
We will continue making progress on our Double Wedding Rings.

I will keep you posted...
