My daughter and I have made several quilts. We do everything at my house. I do most of the sewing since I am more familiar with my sewing machine. She irons and lays the blocks out for the pattern. Then we sew them together. She typically does the long arming.

One recently, we started together and then she finished the sewing. It was a more modern quilt that we were making similar to a pattern she had seen, Ricky Tims Bargello Convergence. We couldn't find a pattern, so we worked it out without any real instructions. A lot of counting to find out how many fabrics. A lot of strip piecing. We used 20 fabrics in each strata of which there is two. We did have to rip several seams, but overall, it turned out good.

The first quilt in the upper left corner was the one we were trying to make. The picture is by @Hugfisch

This is our version.

Edited to add: Now if I could figure out how to make these pictures come out the way they look on my laptop. The stripes run vertical on the bed. It was made for a full size bed with enough width that it could be used for a queen.

And now looking at the pinterest page I see that the pattern is offered by Quiltwoman. https://www.quiltwoman.com/patterns/...attern-pc-197/ It probably has nothing to do with Ricky Tims.
