Finshed

I KNOW it is called "works in progress Wednesday" , but the "progress this week is that these ARE done! Yay!! I wish the photos were better on the square but I did my best. I needed to get them in to the shop before the rain so I hurried with the pics. Never mind. They are done and here you are...
Scarlet Ribbons convergence . 
                                 I had to remove the binding to make it square enough for my liking!
Here is the Chrysanthemum Convergence all bordered, bound and quilted. 

I am posting these on TNTN at needleandthreadnetwork.blogspot.com  Drop by to see the weeks creations from across Canada.

Convergence Quilt samples

Chrysanthemum convergence, all ready to layer and quilt.

Bright Convergence needing interesting borders now.
I have been playing in the sandbox! I have made a couple of Covergence quilts , one of which is now ready to layer and quilt. These are for teaching samples for a beginner convergence quilt class being offered where I teach. Convergence is a really easy technique but you can quickly make something that LOOKS difficult. If you choose your fabrics carefully, cut and sew accurately, the finished product can look quite impressive. It is a fun project for someone who is not brave about sewing intricate blocks yet. However, a lot can be learned about making intricate blocks from this technique. Give it a try . Have a look at Ricky Timms book, "Convergence Quilts.
