Convergence Design

This double bed quilt is made using an adaptation of the convergence design (as previously referenced on this blog).  I love this design -- it's easy to make and very special.  The hardest job is finding four fabrics that complement each other so beautifully!

Table Runners

This table runner is made using the convergence design, with strips that ascend and descend in width.  It is available with a matching twin piece for placement in your living room.  The colors are soothing and beautiful together. 

A Beautiful Gift

A number of women in our community got together to order this quilt as a gift for a bat mitzvah girl, whose parents are buying her an extra wide new bed.   The quilt size is 70 inches wide and 80 inches in length -- almost fits my double bed!  The bat mitzvah girl asked for turquoise and purple -- which apparently go together quite nicely!  There are also 2 matching pillowcases!

This design is called "convergence" and takes its inspiration from Ricky Tims' Convergence Quilts.

Bold Colors

My daughters have been telling me for a long time that it's time to make a beautiful quilt for my own bed!  so, I got to work, in honor of our 42nd anniversary (it's hard to believe!) and Ron's birthday, which is quite a milestone, and I created this quilt.  The pattern is similar to the one that I made for Dahlia's bed, a few years ago (also a convergence quilt).

How to:
take 17 X 21" pieces of 2 contrasting fabrics and cut them in strips -- 1.5", 2.5", 3", 3.5", 5", 5.5".  Then put them together in descending and ascending order.  Isn't the effect stupendous?

Alternating Stripes

This quilt (with matching decorative pillows) was created for one of Amy's daughters. It is a queen size quilt made up of 4 fabrics which are cut in increasing sized strips and put together in large blocks.

The idea comes from a pattern that can be seen on the pillows, called "convergence", from Ricky Tims' Convergence Quilts.
