This week I’m happy to report, I’ve sewn all my double wedding ring segments into those football shape thingies. (Whatever you call them. I’m feeling lyrically lazy.)
And too quick was I to put the football thingies into blocks, that I forgot to get a picture. And after my big rush to lay them out, they are now sitting waiting in a stack labeled with post it notes. I have to cut out the center piece thingy.
But here’s a shot of one block layed out. I use my iphone camera to capture how my blocks should look like Cher uses Polaroids to proof her outfits in the movie Clueless.
And here’s a glimpse of how I sewed them together. I’m a curve pinner. It’s not so bad.
Thanks for stopping by. I’m linking up with Lee’s WIP Wednesday.
Edited to add some piecing notes. These blocks may actually be pickle dish blocks. They are chunky like pickle dish blocks, but aren’t triangular. Also, I clipped only some of the curved seams. I couldn’t tell a difference in the way they lay. So I stopped clipping after a while.
They look awesome!
I've not tried curves in my quilting yet. You've done a great job on yours.
aahh – its going to look amazing 🙂
That looks good! I just bought a DWR template, so I'm interested in seeing how others are doing it right now!
I'm doing something similar ~ only it's called Pickledish. Love how yours are shaping up ~ great fabric choices!
looking fab! You are a much more patient woman than me!
This is so impressive – looking good to me!!
I like your reference to Clueless;) You are making me want to bust out my wedding ring pattern and get to more cutting. BUT I have more baby stuff to make for Jade:):)
I love pickle dish/wedding ring quilts! I need to push myself to try this. In the meantime, love seeing yours!
Looks great so far! Can't wait to see the finished quilt!

I'm totally a curve pinner as well. I don't see any shame in it. 🙂
