    Those are all so amazing! I was looking at a pattern online last night and thinking of a large, blank wall in my living room that could use a wall hanging. These pictures have made the decision to try one.

    Mine is not specifically a Borgello quilt, but definitely pieced borgello style. I sewed all the trips together into a tube, but instead of cross cutting at different widths, all of my crosscut strips were cut at 5 1/2" inches. It was so much easier to do it this way, and seam rip in strategic areas, then to cut out each individual square....that would have been murder. Pics are on page 5 of this thread.

    This is a picture of a bargello quilt I made that I actually drafted myself. It was allot of work but made me understand much better the nature of bargello quilting and allowed me to experiment on future quilts. Fun! Good luck. Let me know if I can help!
