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.

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.

a very pretty quilt

loisf 05-27-2017 04:23 AM

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.

twinkie 05-27-2017 04:23 AM

I like this pattern. Very nice.

rryder 05-27-2017 04:33 AM

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!

WOW. Love it. Not sure what the word convergence means, but I love this quilt. Where do you obtain his patterns?[h=2][/h]

catsden 05-27-2017 12:02 PM

Very nice quilt and I see the quilt inspector seems to approve.

Beautiful quilt. I forgot how much I liked the Convergence quilt. They turn out so pretty.

Jingle 05-27-2017 06:50 PM

Very pretty, I like the focus fabric.

cashs_mom 05-27-2017 07:07 PM

I really like your quilt! This quilt may have to go on my bucket list.

Rose_P 05-27-2017 07:47 PM

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.

LindaJ 05-28-2017 03:35 AM

Beautiful work!

coopah 05-28-2017 04:22 AM

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.

duckydo 05-28-2017 04:59 AM

Very pretty, I bought the fabric and pattern 2 years ago and still have not gotten to it.

juliea9967 05-28-2017 05:21 AM

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.

EmiliasNana 05-28-2017 05:54 AM

You did a beautiful job and your color choices are perfect.
