Quilts made as wedding gifts have such special significance. A new couple

embarks on their life together, and we want to shower them with lovely things to

make their home a rich and welcoming setting. The classic Double Wedding Ring

quilt is a favorite for this occasion. Its symbolic rings, beautiful in both scrappy and

planned fabric arrangements, speak of love, devotion, and the circle of life. We are

proud to offer a vintage quilt pattern for this traditional design as part of this book.

But Double Wedding Ring quilts can be a bit daunting to sew. If you want to make

a special wedding gift, but don’t feel ready for that kind of quilting adventure,

consider either of the other patterns gathered here. Bridal Garden is a unique

design, based on a simple block and embellished with just a touch of appliqué.

And Modern Wedding Ring is such a simple pattern that it originally appeared in the

pages of McCall’s Quick Quilts. Designer Gerri Robinson came up with a wedding

ring look using easy strip-piecing and some stitch-and-flip triangles…so clever!

No matter which wedding quilt you decide to make, make it with love and you

can’t go wrong!

Happy quilting,

Beth Hayes, Editor-in-Chief

From the Editor

Information You Need To Know

All fabric requirements are based on 40˝/42˝-wide fabric. The yardage given includes an additional amount to account for fabric shrinkage and individual differences in cutting. A G˝ seam allowance is included on pattern pieces when required. All measure-ments for pieces, sashing, and borders include G˝ seam allowances. The finished quilt size is the size of the quilt before quilting. Because each quiltmaker usually has a personal preference for a particular type of batting, the type of batting to be used for each quilt will not be listed, unless it is necessary to obtain a specific look. Fabric listed for binding includes yardage for straight-grain binding. Due to variations in materials and equipment, McCall’s Quilting disclaims any liability of untoward results in doing the projects presented. Because McCall’s Quilting has no control over your choice of materials or procedures, neither McCall’s Quilting nor the various manufacturers assume any responsibility for the use of this data.

PLANNING A REPRODUCTION

Using the technique of paper foun-dation piecing allows accurate assem-bly of each 11-piece arc, assuring thatarcs fit the large muslin pieces. Thepaper remains intact until the othershapes are sewn to the arcs—only thenis the paper gently torn away. Piecesdo not have to be cut precisely forfoundation piecing but cut largeenough to trim seam allowances afterseams are sewn. Stitch a practice arc todetermine exactly how generous yourpieces of fabric must be cut.

PIECING THE BLOCK

1. Make 98 photocopies of foundationarc, allowing at least ¼˝ excess paperbeyond the final cutting line on the arc.Cut fabric similar in shape for each areaon foundation arc, adding a generous ¼˝seam allowance on all sides.

2. Place fabric for center area #1 onunprinted side of foundation, directlyover center area #1. A dab of glue stickhelps hold the first piece in place (seeDiagram I).

3. Place fabric for area #2 directlyover area #2. Check placement of fabricby holding foundation up to a lightsource, which allows the printed line toshadow through. Carefully flip fabric #2over fabric #1, right sides together(Diagram II).

While finger-holding fabric in place,gently turn foundation over and stitchon the line between #1 and #2. Beginand end stitching ¼˝ beyond each endof seam line.

4. Gently fold foundation out of theway and trim seam allowance to ¼˝.Referring to Diagram III, press fabric #2out, taking care that no pleat is pressedalong the seam line. Hold up to light toassure that fabric fully covers area #2,plus provides seam allowance on theunsewn edge.

5. Referring to Diagrams IV and V, addfabric #3 in same manner. Continueadding fabrics in numerical order (seeDiagram VI). When arc is completelycovered, trim arc along outer cutting line(see Diagrams VII-A and VII-B). Make 98arcs total.

Planning, Cutting, and MarkingFor this quilt, a design wall or other

large surface will prove invaluablewhen planning each block’s corner fab-ric arrangement and when assemblingthe blocks. You may choose to plan outall the block fabric arrangements inadvance, using swatches of fabrics on adesign wall or you may wish to workblock by block, making sure to usematching fabric triangles in adjacentblocks. June cut the floral stripe trian-gles (bottom row blocks) so the striperuns horizontally. If you wish to dolikewise, cut three of the 5⅞˝ squaresalong 1 diagonal to make the half-square triangles, and cut the remainderalong the opposite diagonal. Accurate¼˝ seams are important to make your“lattice” join up correctly.June used raw edge appliqué for the

stems and leaves. We instruct you todo likewise. Purchase more fabric ifusing a traditional method.
