Wishing Rings
It's a finish!
84 x 91
620 blocks that finish at 3.5 inches.
I quilted it on my DSM. The quilt has a lot of seams in it and I didn't want to cross over all those flippy corners so I decided to quilt it with crazy eights somewhat following the outer ring. I didn't even try to make perfectly spaced eights because I knew that would be impossible for me to do while quilting such a big quilt on my DSM. So I just took it easy, didn't stress about it and the quilting was finished in no time.
I pieced together a couple of pieces of muslin for the back and the binding was also muslin. A big bed quilt doesn't require anything fancy on back.
And sew on...

Love this! I remember when you and others were making these rings. Glad to see the finish and I like the way you used the fabric in each block. I have a difficult quilt that I might do the crazy eight on- it looks perfect for what I need.
Wow, that's a lot of little blocks! Your quilt is beautiful!
That quilt has a lot of fun fabrics to look at. I might think that was a real spider (on green) on my quilt and might get freaked out though. That is a lot of 3" blocks to sew together.
620 blocks of lovliness!! Lots of blocks to sew together here. Nice work hugs, Julierose
I did this sew along with Temecula. Seeing your quilt, i am a little sorry I stopped and didn't make it bigger. Your quilt is so lively!
It's a beautiful quilt! But it must be very, very heavy. That must have been hard to wrangle on your DSM. I don't envy you that.
Don’t remember these blocks in the making but the quilt has turned out beautifully. I don’t know how you Quilt this size on your DSM! You must be a very deft wrangler! The recipient will have hours of pleasure gazing at all the different fabrics.
Wow, Cathy! This is fabulous! I love your quilting solution, too. The quilting makes the back of the quilt nearly as exciting as the front. Congratulations on your finish!
Oh that is so cute! I love the circle quilting. It looks like soap bubbles and is just perfect.
Another Lovely!!!!!
Wishing Rings is so pretty, Cathy! I love all the happy color in those blocks. They look like a fun block to make with your littlest scraps!
what scrappy goodness, so much to look at and like
Wonderful, a riot of colour, just the way you like it!
Wow! I remember these blocks growing and what a great quilt they turned into. The quilting on it is perfect. Well done.
beautiful name for your quilt,I believe is be saying am I finished,an I finished...🤣 Well done on the quilt! lots of work resulting in a beautiful finish
620 blocks, Cathy? Have mercy!! I'm not sure I would have the fortitude to complete that many. It certainly made for a fun quilt, though!
I think that was the perfect quilting technique to use on this beautiful quilt. Crazy eights! Love! The muslin backing and binding is a great nod to the vintage inspiration for this quilt too!
