Some History of the Pomegrante Bargello Pattern

Here is additional information on author's new bargello page. http://bargello.org/bargnew.html

I have searched for the pattern as a quilt but not really coming up with anything with pictures. (the links above show mostly needlework and fabric) I had a store-bought comforter/quilt on my bed as a child that had pretty much the same design except in the "flower power" hippie color. I look forward to checking out some of the pre-1999 books at the library.

I saw that link too. I was hoping to find a quilt pattern. It's all very interesting.

The Labyrinth Walk quilts are really awesome too. I've seen some on this board.

Thanks for sharing..

Not sure where my needlepoint Bargello books are but I always have known this pattern as the flame. Bargello needlepoint goes back to the Elizabethan period in England during the last half of the 1500s.

Thanks for the tidbit; I googled "flame bargello quilt" and was taken to some beauties. Here is a link to a quilt pattern for the flame and shown in several styles. Scroll to the quilt section and see the gold/yellow/black/white. There is a lot here if you keep scrolling, even a bargello youtube video. Patterns to be had as well. Have fun. http://ernsstev.com/bargello-flame-pattern-quilt/
