Alas I have finished the other two DWR

So I began the modern DWR that I sketched out... This category required a minimum of four rings... Interpreted any which way you like... So I decided after folks marry and it's cold they nest... Doni call this "NESTING". There is the traditional DWR construction on a 32" scale, trapunto ring, applique ring, and a thread painted ring...



And I also managed to finish the single ring challenge.

And I wanted to use shott cottons in solids and do something textures in the middle... While it is pleated.. I am calling this one "Pucker up"...

A traditional DWR...simply simplicity

So my guild has this challenge that has gone international... Of course Victoria is behind it because the challenge is a Double Wedding Ring.

There are 3 categories: small, traditional and modern.  I started a couple and restarted and then designed and started again..

As of now I have one complete and one almost done...

So for this one that I shall call "DWR in a Cabin" i will show you my process.  I originally had this grand idea to make log cabins and cut them up.  However, god was shining on me as I walked intoCity  Quilter and saw the fabric.  Whew. Thank goodness, because I would never have finished it. Lol

The back

Design time



 Practice practice




And it was sooo much fun.
