    Gloria,
    Converge means to "come together from different directions so as eventually to meet." I've used 4 different fabrics on this quilt and "made them come together." :lol: I made one convergence quilt where the fabrics were very similar so you don't have to have contrast at all. It's all up to you the designer.

    You can learn more about convergence quilts from Ricky Tims at

    Have fun!

    What a surprise to see this old quilt pop up again! Glad you all are still enjoying it.
    Amma, I've made three convergence quilts but the other two are older and are posted on my web site.

    One's a "black cat convergence" and the other is called a "butterfly convergence." I think it's about time to make another one! Thanks for asking.

    Beautful job! Love the colors! I made one awhile back. They're a fun quilt to do! I haven't done the actual quilting yet, I have a specific design I want to do and I haven't been very motivated. :)

    Your quilt is just beautiful. It is lots of fun to make these. One of mine was bright pinks and reds. My DH looked at it and said "Boy, that is bright!"
