Thank you to everyone for the Welcome!! I'm looking forward to the warmer weather and to starting my first Bargello!

Welcome! You have a lot in common with many of us. :)

Howdy from Texas. Sounds like you've got your feet wet & are ready to dive in to that Bargello quilt. There have been a lot of pretty ones posted here on the boards & just ask away if you have any questions because this board is full of help & encouragement. I think you will like it here.

Welcome London, Greetings from the Sunshine State,

I too learned to sew/quilt from my mom. But, it took, lol, only because I was a mature adult when I learned. Pretty sure I didn't have the patience to learn when I was younger. Glad the fabric bug brought you full circle. Can't wait to see your Bargello. It too is on my short list of bucket list quilts to make.

Hi Jeanne and welcome from NE Ohio.

Hi Jeanne, and welcome from WA state! Here's an idea for you- Have you looked on Bonnie Hunter's site www.quiltville.blogspot.com ? She has lots of free patterns, and there is a Scrappy Bargello, and a Scrappy Trips. Maybe you could "get your feet wet" and see how you like the bargello type process? Happy stitching!
