    I thought I would share my first bargello with you. It was a quilt as you go also. I was scared to start it but amazed at how easy it was to do.

    Oh my goodness!!!!!!! That is beautiful! A quilt as you go bargello sound really interesting. How did you learn to do that?

    Oh, by the way...if it is homeless, my favorite color is blue, LOL!

    LOL! I belong to a Wednesday sewing group and one of the ladies there had one she had done in red. So she gave me her directions, but when I got home the first page was missing so I just kinda winged it and it still turned out okay.

    Thanks, I really liked using the black Fairy Frost for the background because it did seem to add more depth to the overall appearance.
