I'm in a bright pastel phase, as you can see, love these fabrics, a combination of Joann's, Connecting Threads and Fat Quarter Shop.
So, off I went -- first I went to my scrap stash, and pulled out everything I could use -- I got tough, and if it was too small for this quilt pattern, it got thrown out.
The pattern I used came from Quilt Inspiration Blog - Wedding Ring Quilts Part 1, I love the River City Quilt Guild's quilt, but it will have to wait until I master the technique. Part 2 has some beautiful quilts too!

I'm doing the Double Wedding Ring Quilt by Marsha Evans Moore at Free Spirit Fabric for a collection by Jennifer Paganelli at Sis Boom. Click on the link for a free pattern.
So away I went! I like paper piecing for this pattern, it's more precise for me.
One of my goals with quilting is to enjoy the process, and to SLOW DOWN! This quilt is definitely going to be a process :) Here's what I have so far.
I can't decide between making a bed runner or quilt, we'll see how it goes. Now I better get off this blog and get quilting!

I love DWR quilts! Your colors and fabrics are so soft and pretty. Looking forward to seeing more of this beauty as you sew ... :) Pat
ReplyDeleteVery pretty! I'm in a bright pastel phase, too. Must be because spring is on its way.
ReplyDeleteGreat start to the double wedding ring. I am not sure If I will ever make one or not.
ReplyDeleteI have been wanting to make a DWR. It's been on my list for years. I have no idea why I haven't started yet.
ReplyDeleteBasd on what you've done so far your quilt is going to be beautiful.
