What a gorgeous bargello! Is this the one from the Twist and Turn Bargello book?
You did an awesome job on this. Maybe the frustration of working with narrow strips is still too fresh in your head because it would be a shame not to use your considerable talent on another one. Maybe one of the ones in the book that uses wider strips. I know there were a couple in that book where the narrowist strip was 1 1/4 unfinished.
