Product Description Popular quilting expert Ricky Tims presents an imaginative new piecing technique that quilters will adore! Convergence quilts feature two or more fabrics cut into strips, sewn together, then cut and pieced again. They may look complex but are fun and easy to make. Four projects walk you through the process, and Tims shows how to add applique, beadwork, and other decorative touches to achieve an infinite number of looks from one ingenious technique!

Very happy with the purchase and went straight to the coffee shop to drool over it as I couldn't wait until I got home! Can't wait to get started on a project.
  Simple but effective and creative quilt patterns June 24, 2008 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
I saw an example of this convergence quilt in a quilt store and wanted to learn more about the pattern. Book is well layed out with clear and varied photos. Ricky Tims gives you a simple first convergence project and then shows variations that are gradually increasing in difficulty. He discusses fabric selection, gives tips, has a trouble shooting section. I recommend this book if you want to try a more artsy type quilt that can be made from simple to more complicated.

This is the easiest assembly I have ever done. I used leftovers, two colors I hated, and one of those "What was I thinking when I bought that?" psychadelic squares... Well, the end result was FAB-U-Lous. The directions are very clear, Ricky's writing is enjoyable. Will be a permanent fixture in my quilting room. Thanks Ricky !!!!
  Great ideas for quilters November 9, 2007 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
To know Ricky Timms is to love him and the incredible energy he brings to his work. His methods are never "same old,same old." If Timms has done it, you can bet it's innovative. He's as much inspiration as process. Definitely should be on your quilt book shelf.
