Good afternoon from Winnipeg, Manitoba-Canada, I wanted to suggest EQ5 or EQ7 but someone beat me to it..
I have seen tutorial on Missouri Quilt regarding sewing of the bargello of course you'll find books to order from amazon.ca for a fee. I'd check your local library see if you can trace some instructions or take notes on the making of bargello.. It is actually simple when you see the instructions on EQ7.. Maybe just giving EQ7 company a 1-800 a call see if they could sell you just the print out pattern be a lot less money. I'd try a few of company 1-800 see what they say before investing lots of money..

There is a free program for Bargello's - it is called Bargello Sketcher 1.0 - it is quite easy to use. Sorry, can't add a link Try Google

Bargello started out as a long-stitch form of needlepoint. You might find a book of patterns in the needlepoint section of your library. I have transferred some patterns from a needlepoint book to graph paper for quilts, letting each square of the needlepoint pattern be a square on the graph paper, then converting them to 2" (finished) fabric pieces. Once you understand the basic method of piecing bands of fabric and cutting slices, you can try this.
