You have to get a permit in advance to hike in. Don't think I'll ever make it but it sure is fantastic looking.

Oh, my....I LOVE your purple......can you take a close up of the fabrics?? I really like the one with the white in it, too....it adds a bit of zing. I HAVE to make a purple one. I took a class with my mother in law years ago where we made an around the world quilt....I did green, but someone in the class did a purple and it was far and away my favorite.
This is the best picture I have of the fabric. Hope it helps.

Love the pattern on your quilt. Would you give us the name of the pattern? I like the waves more than the peaks in a bargello. TIA
I think her pattern is also Surf Song. It is just the bed sized one and not the lap size. I believe she and I had a discussion about Surf Song when she was making it.

I could be wrong though....:)

So if one is collecting up fabric to make a double bed size bargello; what would be the best amount of fabric to get--in yardage of each fabric? Would Fat quarters work for a lap size ? All of your bargellos are beautiful.

I am looking at the pattern, and for a quilt 98" x 96 1/2 you need 5/8 yard of 24 fabrics...16 fabrics in your main color group and 8 in another. (She says the 8 should be a similar color group.) Fat quarters won't work, as you need at least 42 inch width of fabric.

For the lap size you need 1/4 yard of 20 fabrics. That is two color groups, 12 in one and 8 in the other. Fabric needs to at least be 42 inches wide. Lap size is 46 1/2 by 48 1/2.
