Barb, Are the names of the tutorials below in the order which we are to follow?
1. Bargello Tute (13 pages)
2. Cutting strip sets
3. Arranging cut strip sets for sewing
4. Sewing one section

Thanks Bevster

Yes, that is the order. The first one we discuss the different pattern layouts, fabric choices and arrangement of the fabrices and cutting the 2 1/2 " strips. Sewing the strips together to form the panels/strip sets that you cut to the required width and ironing the strip sets.

Cutting the strip sets the required size and the number you need from each set. The size of those strips range from 3 1/2" down to 1".

The next step is to arrange those strips to form the design. There will be enought of those to made the complete quilt top. they will be sorted into 4 stack, one stack for each section of the quilt.

Once the strips are arranged, you will chain piece them to form the sections.

I was going to try to change the title of this message thread to show that this is the second part of the tutorial....but cant figure out how to do that.
