Solar Flare

Another finish this week, Solar Flare.
 This another from Ricky Tims' Convergence Quilts, (affiliate link) my Book of the Month for November.
https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/157120217X/ref=as_li_qf_sp_asin_tl?ie=UTF8&camp=211189&creative=373489&creativeASIN=157120217X&link_code=as3&tag=quiltfab-20
The first quilt I did was Pink Lattice,
and I had so much fun with that one that I made a second!

 The fabric for Solar Flare had red, yellow and blue in it, and this was the perfect project for this piece. 
I paired it with one red square and one blue, which gave the exploding look coming from the lower right.

 At one point I wanted more yellow, and found a fabric that also had some red in it--perfect! 
Cutting 1" strips, I inserted those in between each strip, both vertically and horizontally.  Gave the quilt a bit of a 'looking through a lens' look.

This one has an all over design called Blast Off, of a rocket ship, star, and moon.  That way, I can give it to a child.  
And here's the back
If you haven't tried one of these convergence quilts, you should!  They are super fun!

 Happy Quilting!

    It looks like it was a lot of fun to create. I'll have to look up that book.

    I did some of these a while back, I need to get that book out again. I was tickled when Ricky Tims posted a comment on my blog, it was an OMG moment.
