    Howdy y'all :c)

    I just got this quilt back from the LAQ. This is the first time I ever attempted a Bargello quilt, and I'm really happy with how it turned out! OK.....so the peace signs are upside down, but I never even noticed it until the borders were on. I made it for my nephew and his partner for their birthdays (they are 9 days apart), and he is the one who told me that any mistakes that are noticeable in a quilt just prove how much the person making it loves the one they were making it for. So he'll know he's REAL loved by this one! LOL!

    First attempt at a rainbow Bargello.

    is there a reason that you can't turn the quilt around so the peace signs are right side up?

    I agree.... I think the Peace Signs are on the bottom of the quilt.

    Very pretty - it depends on how it goes on the bed if the signs areupside down or not.
