I love making bargello quilts- my favorite pattern ever- nothing to be afraid of- they are not difficult- just stay 'organized' I use post-it flags to number each fabric- then to number my strip set (strips) as I cut them & lay them side by side- also, make a *map* by cutting a strip (I generally use about a 1/2" x 1 or 1 1/2" piece of each fabric) glued to a piece of fabric with it's corresponding number- so as you open your strips you can easily look at your map & see which fabrics you are opening between. as long as you keep your strips in order you will find them to be not difficult at all.
