Hello, I am new to quilting and look forward to learning at lot from everyone here. All tips are welcome. I would like to make my son a Bargello Quilt for his queen size bed as my first quilt. I have been told to use Jelly Rolls for this style of quilting.Does anyone else have advice on this?Also I am unsure as to how to go about choosing the colors of the fabric so that it compliments each other. I have been wanting to learn how to quilt for a very long time. And I think the time has come to just jump in and start.

I have not made one yet but they sure are pretty. Put Bargello in the search at the top of the page, you'll be amazed at the info there.

I have now done a few..below is the one I'm working on now..if your totally new to quilting..it might not be a good first choice..it is easier then it looks and to me the hard part is the selection of fabric..look at a lot of them and start with a simple one..to get the hang of it!
