Hi, thank you for all the replies,as I mentioned I love this book because the instructions are so clear and easy to follow.I am not an experienced quilter so I was a bit daunted when I first saw them . However , by referring to your colour chart you soon get very familiar with them and so once you" get going" so to speak, it becomes a pleasure to do.This was only my second bargello, I did" Infinity" first. and I was a little braver over the choice of fabrics this time. I wanted to put a couple of" Zingers" in . I think the hardest part is choosing your fabrics. I did free motion stipple on this one too, which I was a bit worried about, but it seems to have worked. Hope this helps.In other words---You won' t be pulling too many hairs out ,honestly. Go for it.
