Hi - I am working on this same pattern from McCalls - I have everything all paper pieced and cut out - I just need to get started on sewing the darn thing. I am a little bit intimidated about sewing the curves.

Can you sell a quilt and buy a mechanical dishwasher? I have a little robot vacuum cleaner that runs around keeping the floors clean.. It has the artificial intelligence of a cricket...and is called a roomba, and it is easy to pick threads out of its roller / brushes.
Can you trade table toppers or baby quilts for help cleaning, from some of our younger children occupied quilters? Call it a quilter's retreat, they go home with a finished project, anf your house is more orderly.
They just might enjoy a half day out - away from the clamor?
I remember that I would have. There is some kind of magic about helping in somebody elses house.J

There is a much easyer way to make the Double Wedding Ring quilt on KayeWoodTV.com Once you get to the site, go to quilts & Wall hangings. Then scroll down to Rings that Binds. This way, finishes the front & back at the same time.
