Kathy Doughty's book Adding Layers has a huge wedding ring quilt pattern that looked like fun. I have never made a full double wedding ring quilt, although I contributed a few blocks to a wedding quilt.
In order to construct this quilt, you sew the arcs by machine, then applique the entire ring on a background fabric.
Making the arcs was my favorite part of the construction. I didn't have too much trouble finding different fabrics that all went nicely together.
Tula Pink Freefall was perfect for a background. It has dots that work for making sure the ring is square, but it also has a silky finish. It is fabric intended for backing quilts, but works for the front, too.
