Comments
After seeing my friend's convergence quilt, I just had to make one. The fabrics came from the quilt shop on St. Simons Island, Georgia. While making the quilt, I kept thinking of orchids escaping from one of those beautiful mysterious courtyard gardens in Old Savannah, "escaping in the cool moonlight to dance until dawn."
