Default Bargello process is amazing...

I am happily continuing building my bargello. This is just an amazing process. It really isn't hard, but I sure can't hurry it...just got to take my time. (not easy) I am very glad I read the instructions about a million times before I started!

I have only cut one strip the wrong size. Not bad for me.

Love the way it's looking.

I learned a lesson with my avatar bargello. Since that one I now cut and lay out all the strips, but I don't sew them all together until I can stand back and look at it as a whole unit. With my avatar I decided to change the pattern AFTER I had sewn all the strips together. It wasn't fun picking all those seams out ... but I am so pleased with the result. It was worth it.

So pretty andI love your colors! I love bargellos! I've made several and they are by far my favorite quilt to make. I've never used a pattern but instead made up my own designs. They are so much fun to make! Watching them grow has to be the most satisfying part of it all! Can't wait to see yours completed!!!

Your avatar is beautiful! You have a real eye for what looks good, obviously. Not sure I could have picked out all those seams, but it sure is beautiful!!

I will probably never be brave enough to create my own designs. I sure admire the fact that you can!! I just don't seem to have a "design wall in my head."
