marvellove posted photos of her Swish 'Texas Cousin' today. If you haven't seen her Bargello please stop by for a look. It is beautiful.

I finished my 'Tidal Wave' a couple weeks ago but do not get good sun on the deck right now to take photos. I bit the bullet after I read marvellove's post and got these photos of my completed Bargello. I named it 'The Tidal Wave'.
The pattern was designed and created by a fellow board member 'Danmar'. If you would like a pattern this is her link:

I must caution anyone who starts making Bargello's. They are totally addictive!

I didn't follow Bargello rules because I used some of the same color fabrics twice.

Some of my threads bearded and I know why. It pays to pull that bobbin thread to the top before stitching! You told me!

The entire quilt was stitched and quilted on the domestic machine SQ9000. This is a closeup of the back. (Don't you just itch to 'snip that thread!'

I basted stitch in the ditch then put a decorative stitch over it. Took forever! I can't tell if that is coffee spots on the white or a flower. ? It will be fine either way.
