40th Wedding Anniversary Quilt, made and quilted by Jana Knutson (Tucson).
Jana Knutson says, "I've wanted to make a wedding ring qult for many years! Finally, for my 40th wedding anniversary, I did it. It was not as hard as I thought it would be using this pattern and curved rulers." It must have been fun to choose the pretty batiks for this design. Pattern: Metro Rings by Sew Kind of Wonderful.
Double Wedding Ring, made and quilted by Sheila Arnold.
Winner of 1st place in its category at the recent Arizona Quilters Guild show, Sheila Arnold says: "I finished this quilt for our 60th wedding anniversary celebration in June, 2024. I used the Quick Curve ruler for the pathwork, quilted the motifs (computer guided) on my embroidery machine (Anita Goodesign) and free-motion stippled the remaining spaces on my home sewing machine."
We love Sheila Arnold's sunflower quilting design in the centers of the rings. Pattern source: Metro Rings by Sew Kind of Wonderful.
