I haven't moved on to the more complex bargello yet.
Just curious - did you cut off at the seam allowance or take out the stitches? I saw Elenor Burns cut hers at seams.
I unsew my Trip Around the World quilts.
[i]If Trip Around the World is a form of bargello, I don't think I will ever do one. I got the Eleanor Burns Trip Around the World book, cut everything, stripped everything and when it came time to put it together, it made no sense to me at all. I redid the whole thing, made it a regular quilt and gave the remaining strips away. I couldn't stand to look at it again. It is now a Quilt of Valor delivered Saturday to a soldier in Texas who is home on leave. I doubt he will ever realize all the angst I had over it and it is making someone happy without even being a Trip Around the World. NEVER AGAIN!!!
