Double Wedding Ring Quilt

I promised my daughter a double wedding ring quilt when she got married. Being a Quilter herself, she understood there was no way to get it done before the wedding last April. I told her I'd have it done for her first anniversary. Sorry the colors in this picture aren't better. The corner stones are a dark blue floral and a bright yellow.

So far I have all the arcs (400) made and the rest of the pieces cut out. I have attached arcs to the "melons" to make 120 completed melons. I need a total of 189. My goal is to have all the "melons" completed before I go to PIQF on the 14th of October.

In the last few years, instead of taking classes at PIQF, resulting in more unfinished projects, my friend Selma and I take our own projects to work on. When we get tired of walking around the show we go up to our room and sew. I hope to get a good number of "melons" attached to the centers.

I was working on this project at the Diablo Valley Retreat last June. I was anxious to see how it would go together, so put several rings together. Attached is a picture.

Just received my letter excepting my "Doctor Doctor, All I see are Quilt Blocks" quilt into the Pacific International Quilt Festival next month. It's the picture posted on July 24th, the one that will be in the Walnut Creek Library in January. This is the first time I've entered a Juried and Judged show. For those who don't know, a "juried" show, is one where your quilts have to be accepted into the show, meaning not all quilts get in.
