HARMONIC CONVERGENCE and GRAND CONVERGENCE
Kathy Larson, Instructor
These two technique-rich workshops are fun & appropriate for beginners & experienced quilters alike. Included will be detailed instructions of the techniques & processes used in class, along with pictures of examples for ideas & inspiration on completing your quilt tops. They can be used as quilts, backgrounds for art quilts, purses, bags or just about any project you can think of!
Kathy Larson will be teaching these Ricky Tims’ techniques. With a convergence quilt the design unfolds on it’s own, based on the fabrics used. She encourages you to “trust the process”. Once the main design is complete, endless possibilities & opportunities for originality will follow. You will be able to complete two small quilt tops during class, which you then can take home to add borders and applique.
Kathy Larson joined DQN & Silver Threads in 2017 after returning to the Las Vegas area from a four-year motor-home trip across the United States. She has been quilting for nearly 30 years, giving away over 300 quilts as gifts, donations or charity quilts. Besides traditional piecing, she also enjoys English Paper Piecing, having won second place at the DQN show in April 2018, the first show she ever entered, and first place in the DQN show 2019. Kathy loves teaching & getting quilters to try new ideas & techniques.
Materials List:
Kathy will be providing the mandatory pattern for the Harmonic Convergence and freezer paper to be used with the Grand Convergence pattern. $5.00 pattern fee due to teacher in cash on day of class.
You will need to supply STARCHED fabric for each project as follows:
Harmonic Convergence: Four 12” to 16” squares of **STARCHED** fabric. They can be four different fabrics or two squares each of two different fabrics.

Lunch Options: purchase from the onsite deli, group order from CooCoos, or you are welcome to bring your own!
It will be a fun day of exploration. Hope to see you there!
