We're extremely excited to co-host the very first Free-Wheeling Single Girl Sew-Along with Denyse Schmidt and The Next Stitch!
We'll be taking you through the updated and revised version of Denyse's witty and timeless version of a Double Wedding Ring. The pattern includes guidelines for improvising the ring piecing. The Free-Wheeling Single Girl pattern includes easy-to-use instructions, templates (for the background pieces), and measurements to create your own Free-Wheeling Single Girl quilt in baby, twin, queen, or king sizes, and a pillow sham.
