    Any tips/suggestions are greatly appreciated!

    I cheated and just used a curve template and made my curves all one color.

    i think that method was John Flynn. of the Flynn frame.
    he took darts in between each little section though.

    I haven't been brave enough to try that one yet.

    I bought the book Rings that Bind, by Cheryl Phillips. It also comes with a template and instructions for making it 2-color, or scrappy. You can view a video on Kay Wood's website. I'm anxious to make it - after some UFO's get finished.

    I just finished making two DWR tops. I used the Eleanot Burns method which was VERY easy!

    I can help you if you need help. Just PM me.

    She was a speaker/teacher at one of my guilds last year. Her DWR is ooooooohhhh so cool!! If I ever make one I'm using her method.

    A friend recently completed a DWR that was done using the Quiltsmart interfacing. It's beautiful! http://www.quiltsmart.com/

    Here is a link to a strip pieced Wedding ring quilt. It appears to be more boxy, but very easy and no curves to piece. I have made several.

    Here is one I made out of flannel.
