I have purchased the pattern to make the Twisted Bargello Wall Hanging by Chris Timmins but am not experienced enough to read and understand this pattern. I will really appreciate it if someone familiar with the Bargello patterns can give me some assistance in understanding the pattern. In reading the pattern. My understanding is:

I will need 1/4 yards of 20 different colored fabrics which will be cut into 1 1/2 inch wide strips and remain separated by color.

Each set of colored strips should then be labeled with a specific number which will identify the placement of fabric on each row and that if the row starts out with one number but later changes to another number I should change to a different fabric to match new number. I also understand after I have made the strips I will sew them into a tube and cut the tube into different widths as per the instruction given in the pattern.

I received a grid with the pattern that has a lot of little squares on it that I think is what tells me when I should change a color within a row. However, based on this grid, I did not find anything in the instructions to tell me exactly how long each stip of fabric should be or if I need to cut little individual squares of fabric based on the number of squares between each color. And if cutting little individual squares is the answer, how do I know what size squares I should cut.

Thank you for reading my thread and all responses are appreciated.
