Don’t be afraid of the Double wedding Ring! This is a challenge to learn a new skill, try new techniques and let your creative exploration shine through on this traditional pattern!
This is a challenge FOR EVERYONE, All quilters… of any style.
Please note : in each category, a quilt must be made of three layers and bound.
To get your creative juices flowing, The Quilt Alliance (one of our generous Sponsors) has put together a PINTEREST page with examples of Double Wedding Ring quilts included in their Quilt Index. Feel Free to pin Double Wedding Ring quilts.

This is a great way to play and learn your curves, and try your own version of making this fun design!

I will be working with these great EZ quilting templates. They make cutting the block a breeze. Here is a video on how easy it is.
I will be giving away one set of the DWR templates set from EZ Quilting/Simplicity. Just leave a comment on this blog before July 25th.

Thanks for the video. And for the giveaway.
cat in tassie
Thanks for the opportunity to win the template set. I like the idea of the arcs being made out of a single piece of fabric. I have 4 big plastic tubs full of hand dyed fabrics and could imagine using some of those in a DWR – the fabrics would link it to the contemporary, and the design would link it to the traditional.
Sue H
This challenge is right on time – daughter getting married in October and now I know which type of quilt to make for them! DWR with a modern twist.
Lori L
Thanks for the giveaway and info on how to use them. Maybe I will have to give this a try. I have always loved the DWR.
Brenda J.
The video is a great help in understanding exactly how the templates are used. I am excited to give it a try! Thanks for the opportunity to win!

cakegirl
Thanks for a great giveaway. Can't wait to get started.
bettsylyn (Lynda)
I'd really like to try this. It has to be much easier than the traditional way. And I always love play with new rulers and ideas.
Barbara Beyun
I am so inspired to try this. I'd love the chance to win the rulers to make it a bit less daunting….
Lisa E
It would be a fun challenge to make a double wedding ring. Thanks!
Julia
Trying a double wedding ring has always been on my list, I was absolutely certain I'd do it EPP'd, but with these templates, I'd give a sewing machine a try. Thanks for considering me in the giveaway.
Karrie S
Thanks for the chance to win!
leanne
I just started using the template ruler to cut my pieces out today so I just wanted to say thanks so much for the link to the how to use the ruler video !! its really handy and I'm glad that I actually got it right !
Bev Spencer
I have just carefully cut all my pieces. Joined 13 arcs and the bottom edge just will not fit the melons even though the tops fit the centres. I have measured my seams with the template and they come out exact. Please, what am i doing wrong? I cannot ease the pieces together without puckering. I am at a loss. Help
