The Double Wedding Ring Quilt Block

February 15, 2019 by Carolyn 1 Comment

It’s hard to believe I designed the original  Double Ring Wedding Quilt almost 20 years ago for my brother and sister-in-law’s 50th wedding anniversary. It was a queen size whole cloth quilt. When Seams And Scissors’ editor asked me for a wedding quilt I decreased the size down to 14 1/2″ to be more usable for you quilters here at Seams. Now it is The Double Ring Wedding Quilt Block that is versatile enough to be used for different projects from pillows to any size quilt or wallhanging by creating multiple blocks. It is still a whole cloth for hand or machine quilting.

Blocks can be sewn together into a quilt top after marking each to be quilted traditionally or quilted individually  then sewn together. If you would like to know more about this “quilt as you go method”, please let us know in our comment section.

Here is a 42″ x 28″ six block wall hanging:

To use The Double Ring Wedding Quilt Block download and print the pattern:

DOUBLE-RING-14-INCH-QUILT-BLOCK

Mark your fabrics. I used a #2 pencil-mark very lightly. There are marking pens that can be dabbed away with a damp cloth and one that disappears in 24 hours. There is no way this old gal marks with a 24 hour pencil-I might get pulled away from quilting and my pattern disappears. I am fond of the  one that disappears with a damp cloth, however.

Machine or hand quilt

Included in the pattern are templates to configure with monogramming  if you want. Just choose a font you like from your computer or stencil. I liked the chunky block lettering that was easy to free motion quilt around.

The Double Ring Wedding Quilt Block can be customized  with names and dates for weddings and anniversaries. The original Double Ring Quilt had the 50 years in the center oval. This will be a knock out remembrance even though it is fairly simple to do.

Happy Quilting!
