Ricky Timm's Convergence Quilt done
2 Attachment(s)
This has been on my bucket list for years, and it turned out to be as much fun to make as I thought it would be, in spite of some snafus that needed lots of ripping and resewing, having to do with me and not the pattern at all. It's 66" square and will go on our couch in the colder time of year.

That's beautiful. I love the colors you used for it.
|
Very well done.
|
That is fabulous...................
|
really pretty!
|
To me, a lot of contemporary-design quilts look cold or lurid or like they're trying too hard to be a piece of art. This is none of those things. The design is innovative and clever and the colors rich and soothing. This is one to be proud of.
|
it looks great
|
Very nice. Like your colors.
|
This is gorgeous!!
|
I love your convergence quilt. Great fabric choices. That will look great on your couch any time of year.
|
a very pretty quilt
|
It's lovely! You did a wonderful job choosing fabrics. I've seen some convergence quilts that just don't work because of poor fabric choices. Yours is spectacular.
|
I like this pattern. Very nice.
|
Good job! I've been wanting to try one of those. I like the way yours worked out with the borders around the central squares. Great design!

Beautiful quilt. I forgot how much I liked the Convergence quilt. They turn out so pretty.
|
Very pretty, I like the focus fabric.
|
I really like your quilt! This quilt may have to go on my bucket list.
|
Thank you, Everyone! This is a pattern from Ricky Tims' (sorry misspelled it in my title!) book Convergence Quilts, Mysterious, Magical, Easy, and Fun published in 2003. He gave some useful pointers for picking and placing fabrics in this type of design. It may be out of print by now, but as Kitsie says above, the pattern is still available. I wonder what took me so long. There are versions in the book using curves, and someday maybe I'll get around to that, too. These designs are so innovative without being difficult. I wonder what my grandmother would have thought of it.
|
Beautiful work!
|
There's a lot of work in that quilt. Nice that it matches the cat, toes, and rug! You'll certainly enjoy using this beauty.
|
Very pretty, I bought the fabric and pattern 2 years ago and still have not gotten to it.
|
This is a beautiful quilt. It is on my TO DO list, but I have never been able to find the fabrics that I would like.
|
You did a beautiful job and your color choices are perfect.
