Hmmmm....gonna need some really accurate templates for this one. Not sure how to go about that. Each side of the ring has got to be the same shape and size, which doesn't seem easy to figure out since the pieces are curved.

I love it, that is what I do most is make DW quilts. The first one I made wa back in the 80's, My first block took me a week to make it. I don't remember how long it took to make the quilt. It was blue and white full size I still have it and no one gets to use it.
I use the hard plastic pattern I have all sizes including miniture. I am now trying a quilt as you go DW so far only one block complted. I am trying to get the lady here in town to give a class. I also have paper piecing pattern but have not tried it yet.
Your is really nice. love the colors.

My mom gave me a fab pattern to do the DW paper pieced!!! It is for the pickle dish... I also have the templates by Marti Michell and it shows how to do the arcs in pieces or as a single piece. I just need to decide what fabrics I want to use!!! I recently order the curve master presser foot that works to make curved piecing. If you haven't seen it, do a search for "curve master" and see how it works!!! I did a drunken path and it turned out really good!!! Now I just need to decide on which DW to work on first

I'll try to get a pattern in the works soon. I just haven't been able to focus on anything the last few nights...my wisdom teeth are coming in so all I've been able to focus on is the pain and finding a food that doesn't hurt to eat (soup is the only one so far). :(
