This bargello is using 5 in squares only. I am making it with 12 colors. The diagram shows placement of the 12 colors.. On the right is a chart, showing the amount of blocks needed. The colors are used..one for each pattern.
This is for a queen/king quilt

I have a question...can you still call it a bargello when all the squares are the same size? I thought changing the size was a requirement, otherwise it's something else. It's not Trip Around the World though, because that's repeating diamond shaped squares, right?

That is going to be beautiful. And yes it is a bargello even if the squares are all the same size. That's how I made mine and it's a favorite.
