More Quilting

In November I started making a convergence quilt / wall hanging.which was a project I'd had in mind for a while but just couldn't get started. I followed the instructions in Ricky Tims book "Convergence Quilts" I used four fat quarters of fabric which were cut into strips and joined and then cut and pieced again. I found it hard to visualise the end result and hoped the fabrics work well together. I used some Japanese fabric. The Japanese pine tree motif has been machine and hand quilted and appliqued.
I'm really happy with the end result and I will probably hang it in my bedroom.

  3. Looks great Lesley. I spotted it on my iPhone screen when I was checking my blog roll, lying in bed looking out on Noosa Sound... Huge rain shower blew the outdoor table and open beach umbrella into the pool! What a life. Happy Christmas, Ann.
