Carla, living in Washington, sent me this stunning red and white double wedding ring quilt.
It was intended for her son's wedding.....um....a few years ago!
Her daughter-in-law got to pick the pattern and colors. (lucky girl)
But isn't it worth the wait?
I will probably never, in my life time, make a double wedding ring quilt.
I love them, but I just don't have the patience.
And who doesn't love a red and white quilt?
They are timeless!
The back is a pretty white on white dot swirl print.

I quilted a pretty all-over design.
I didn't want to take away from the piecing.
LOVE the scalloped edge.

She asked me to bind it - all finished and ready to give to the bride & groom!
An absolute gift of love.....*sigh*

What a breathtaking quilt. Worth the wait! You did a beautiful job of quilting this treasure!
ReplyDeleteWell of course I absolutely love this, red and white is the best color combination ever and this is an heirloom if ever I saw one! I am working on some blue and white scrappy throws for the girls and their husbands for Christmas and I must admit, I find working in a narrow color pallet quite boring, but I love the results! Maybe that is why this lovely quilt took so long to make. It is certainly worth the wait :>)
ReplyDeleteWish I was her daughter in law!! :) LOL
ReplyDeleteIt's beautiful!
Stunning!
ReplyDeleteVery pretty quilt - you're right - red and white is timeless. Was the scalloped binding hard to sew in the corners? Looks great!
