ONE!

Created for PQ 14.1 The First One

So many ways to make this theme work. 

    Number one quilt finish of the year.

    Number one challenge quilt of the year.

    Number one PQ quilt of the year.

Easy peasy. Whatever I can make anything work! I was doing some minor winter cleaning in my fabric room. Yes, it's a room. I have been on the stash reduction project for many years. That means I only buy fabric if needed for a CURRENT project. I make several big quilts every year and I still have a fabric room......!!!!!?????

Anyway, I found a stack of pretty cool hand dyed fabrics that I thought I should find a use for. It occurred to me this was the perfect thing for a One challenge. I would use One amazing piece of hand dyed fabric and converge it using the Ricky Tims technique. So I started with this one. 

I decided to use half because it was already Thursday afternoon and I had more things to do in the next couple days.  After all, grandkids are always more important than anything, even quilting.Also, this size will make a great table runner.😀 So I picked half, cut it down the middle, flipped one half because I could and converged it using Ricky Tims technique. I could have converged it in the other direction, too, but this is the challenge of one, after all. I added simple quilting in diagonal lines and bound it using the same fabric.
