I decided to take part in an on line Quilt Festival. Thank you Park City Girl for this opportunity to share one of my favorite and my second quilt.
This is my first attempt to follow instructions. I usually just kind of do my own thing when it comes to quilting. The Center is a pattern for Ricky Tim's Book Convergence Quilts. It is a very cool book. I started out just making the center square and had such fun that I decided I wanted to make it into a lap quilt. So here it is. I hand quilted it and one of my favorite things is in the border and I quilted random circles of various sizes. If you click on the photo you should be able to see the circles.
I hope everyone has had a great weekend. Tomorrow I am off to Boring, Oregon to see my guide dog puppy Bronx and wish him well with his new blind partner. I wrote about Bronx on my blog on April 13th if you missed it.
