I didn't leave much instruction with Dixie, the long arm quilter genius, and I think she did such a beautiful job on the quilting. She stitched "in the ditch" around each ring and the first border, and she did four different stitches in the rest of the quilt.
The borders are two of my favorite fabrics in this line. The blue one is one of the 54" pieces.
That muslin background is still some of the coolest fabrics I've seen. Really heavy with flecks of tans and brown.
The back is one piece of that 108" wide by Moda. I think that fabric goes with almost everything. Also I wanted everyone to see that awesome corner. That binding tutorial has saved my life so many times!
I'm so happy that I get to look at this every day!

Ohhh! That is so gorgeous! I love the colors and the quilting is just beautiful. Wedding Ring quilts are one of my favorite and kind of my reason for getting into quilting. I've only dabbled a little bit, but one day I'm going to make a DWR. Beautiful work and thanks for the inspiration!

Beautiful Nicole!! Wow all the quilting is so pretty and makes the rings pop out, like 3D.I get a kick out of my corners coming out perfect too. My husband thinks it's the silliest thing. He's a non-quilter and doesn't understand.
