    I made one quilt using the Quick Curves Ruler by Sew Kind of Wonderful - their site has lots of pics and info (as does IG, Pinterest etc). They have two patterns for Wedding Ring-type quilts, the Metro Hoop which is single rings and the Metro Rings which is double rings.

    It was made using the flannel pjs my daughters wore which I saved since they were little. It turned out really well. The beauty is in being able to use scrappy fabric and the curves are gentler than other patterns so easier to sew together, if you're not that great with sewing curves. I use lots of circles in my quilts but still enjoyed using the QCR.

    The other advantage of the QCR is you can use it for a bunch of different patterns, so you save $ by only buying one ruler rather than a bunch of different templates.

    Good luck!

    Welcome to our informative board and on your attempt to want to do the DWR. I did my first a couple of years ago. There is a 2 part tutorial by Shari Jorgenson. The assembly on part two really helped me.
    Here is the link to part 1 - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=eQPmfGp8wmQ
    Good luck

    Welcome to the board. Just curious on your skill level? I LOVE the Double Wedding Ring quilt but as a solid intermediate sewer I am a bit overwhelmed with the process

    Me, too! I have a beautiful one that my grandmother made by hand. I'd never be able to reach her level so I'm just not going there.

    I wonder where the OP went? It doesn't look like she's commented since her original post
