Double Wedding Ring

My DIL has asked to make her a DWR reproduction quilt. The Accuquilt cutter has dies, but only six segments and the old-time quilts all seemed to have more.

In search of a pattern, I discovered I wanted the book, Rings That Bind by Cheryl Phillips. According to the YouTube.com video, I'd need the "stuff" that comes with it!

If search of the book, I discover it's out of print and there's none to be had.

So, back to my dilemma...what now?

Here's some fabrics to start:

    Put the word out - as you have done on your blog. Maybe someone out there in blog land has a copy of the book they would be willing to sell you. Cheryl Phillips is one of the best, someday I want to try a Mariners Star quilt using her rulers. I saw her demo it and it is the only way to go. Bernie

    Bernie,

    Thanks for your post. I've decided to get started and found a set of directions to paper piece it from McCall's here:

    She wants scalloped edges, so I have to figure that out now.

    Thanks,

Online Quilt Festival - Spring 2009

What a great idea to host an online Quilt Festival ! Thanks to Amy @ Park City Girl! Be sure to stop by and add your favorite quilt! Well, I really want to join in this huge event, so I'm hoping that an almost completed quilt will qualify! I've chosen my Hungry Caterpillar quilt as my favorite because it is my best to date and who doesn't want to show their best? Of course, I have a long way to go, but I'm learning with each and every quilt. This quilt's story goes like this...it was a kit! I'm not ready to chose my own fabrics/colors just yet (may never be!). I got the kit and went to work trying to hit the one-year old granddaughter's birthday (missed it, of course). I simply loved its simplicity since it was panels that I just put together, but it was a good ego boost for this quilting novice, not to mention the practice I'd gotten! So, I loaded on my new HQ16 with the ProStitcher and it sat until I found a digital pattern to go with it. Once again, I...

Making Some Headway

Wow, finally got all the Kids Will Be Kids blocks put together!!! On to the borders next! I can't wait to get it on the HQ! I worked on my January calendar and still need a few more days. Can't decide which fabric to add. I was trying to use just what I finished, but I think I'll just use some from current projects because I can't get enough done in one month. :) I also worked on my Double Delight a bit tonight, but I'm having trouble getting my on-point squares to not shift when sewing. I need to get those pins Bonnie talks about in her video on her Quiltville site. That's it for Sunday. Gloria
