Thinking ahead....about borders
#21
I just made a Bargello with the same (or similar pattern & colors) and I used a black fabric for the border but it had a light gray pattern in it--here's a picture so you can see what it looked like. I used burgundy for the thin border because I didn't have enough of the green that I wanted to use.

The pattern I used is Illusions by Dereck Lockwood. It is not an easy pattern. I won't do another like it, though I will do more Bargellos. My first Bargello was Surf Song from a book by Eileen Wright, Twist and Turn Bargellos. Her instructions are very good and there is a placemat in this book that is designed to walk a quilter through the organization needed for a Bargello. There are ten other patterns in the book.
Anyway, I will attach a picture of mine, in case it is of interest to you. It was a good quilt for me to start with, Bargell0o-wise.
