    Cheers everyone! I'm Faith and I live in New Zealand. Grew up in Ft. Worth, TX area. I started quilting a while back. I would love to find a double wedding ring quilt pattern about 40 years old. I can remember seeing my Grandmother, Aunt and Mom quilting it by hand on a large loom when I was about 10 years old. Do not know where the quilt got off to. None of the patterns I've seen remind me of that one. Any suggestions or patterns you might have are welcome. Thanks, Faith :D

    Here is the one on Quilters' Cache:

    http://www.quilterscache.com/D/Doubl...RingBlock.html

    This is a fairly common pattern; you should be able to find multiple patterns/methods for it. I've been told there is also a printed foundation fabric you can use.

    Welcome from Montana! I am lucky enough to have a Double Wedding Ring Quilt that my Great-Grandmother made. But sorry, I don't have a pattern. Good luck!

    I have a book with old wedding ring patterns in it. I will look tomorrow and see if the pattern is in there. If it is then I will PM you.
