Stunning - love your color selection. The yellow square could be a light showing through the fabric.

Bargello has been on my "list" and have had two pattern books for the Bargello for years. Seem to always get side-tracked with a "but first."

A narrow border in the medium dark red and the darkest red for the binding might look nice. I rarely bind a quilt in one of a quilt's lighter colors. Just doesn't look right to my old eyes. LOL

Looks great! I am a border lover. I love the way these are finished off:

What if you added 2 narrow black borders with a narrow red border or flange between? It would frame it up nicely and you could do with narrow borders and not add too much to the size. Binding - I think I'd have to lay out some fabric and see whether black or red would look best.

I always think it looks like wearing white shoes with black stockings. Not a great look. ;-)
