I would recommend an older book that can be found for sale on eBay called The Bargello Book by Piecemakers. There is also simple square Bargello which you might find easier to do for sale on eBay.......

Eileen's book is excellent but I think it might just overwhelm you with most patterns have twists and turns. The Surf Song is the only simple pattern in the book. There have been numerous photos previously posted on this site. Just do an advance search and check it out. There are a lot of us who are experienced with Bargello and we are all here to help.
