As you surf Pinterest, you come across these absolutely wonderful modern versions of a double wedding ring pattern. Most of them have been created by Victoria Findlay Wolfe. I just listened to two great videos with Victoria and Nancy Zieman on the thought process Victoria uses to create her modern quilts. Very inspirational. Victoria really breaks the process down so it is not overwhelming at all. AND throws in a few hints as well. Victoria uses techniques from the past (to honour her Grandmother) and from the present (making fabric) to blend life into her quilts. The more you look, the more details you see.
Here is the link to the videos with Nancy Zieman:
