May I Share?I can show this little quilt to you now since it has a new home. Su Bee at Pieces of Time was my Winter Swap partner and she received this little tidbit from me today.
This is a Convergence quilt by Ricky Timms. A few weeks ago we had a guest here in our community who spoke about quilting and showed us 50 of the 75 convergence quilts she's made over the last two years. We talked her into having a mini class one evening and this is the result. :-) Perfect timing!
Thank you for letting me share.
In Friendship!

I've always wanted to do a convergence quilt but I thought that you had to have special fabric like in his (Ricky Tims) book. Do you follow any special rules tttwhen you chose the fabrics? Like only small prints or must be highly contrasting colors? Very cute and nice that you gave a little mini class.
I love that blue snowman fabric...what line is that, do you remember? Cute quilt, lucky swap partner :)
Whoo-hoo -- this is my baby now, and I just LOVE it! "convergence" is the name I can never remember, and you're right, it's the perfect description for the network of bloggers. THANK YOU, it's so cool!!!
Cute, cute! I love the little snowpeople. :)
Lucky Su bee!
What a cute quilt. Your partner in the swap was one lucky gal. Didn't know that's what you call those kind of quilts. I learned something new today, YAHOO.
Enjoy your day - Karen
What a great quilt, lucky Su Bee, love the fabrics you used.
Very Very Nice! Today February 12th is Darlene's (mom) Anniversary. HAPPY ANNIVERSARY! Love you
That's so clever the way it's done, like a piece of graphic art. Great job.
What a great idea . . . what a wonderful little quilt *s*
Aren't convergence quilts cool?? I made my first in December and now I am hooked! super easy and you never know what it will look like. A mystery quilt but lots less work!
yours looks like a beautiful spring day!
Very nice! I know your swap partner will enjoy it.
I love show and tell. Its delightful.
Convergence quilts are so fun! They look hard, but NOT! Lucky Su Bee.
Great quilt, Darlene!
I like the convergence quilts...I have so many on my list already but might have to sneak that one on there too.... Yours is very springy looking. Pretty!
What an adorable quilt - I love it! Happy, pretty fabrics! Lucky SuBee!! I'm sure she loves it!
Love the colors and the pattern ..... what a beauty for dreary winter days!
Cute quilt! Hum... quilting in your community!?!?! I wonder who started that! lol I'll be seeing Ricky in May. He's having one of those mega seminars with Libby, Alex and Bob the thread guy in Glenn Falls (about 3 hours from my home). Oh, Did I ever tell you that my Bernina shop has asked me to monitor Libby's class at VQF this summer? I've always wanted to take a class with Libby Lehman and now I get to help her out in a class! Wooo hooo! Love the perks of owning a Bernina! Keep well!
