You are becoming the bargello queen. (And my autocorrect wanted to make that bordello queen--yikes!) :)

Funny! I am certainly enjoying this bargello process though, that much is true!

The peaks should be up. That is what the Bargello needlepoint books display. Most Bargello designs originated back in the Elizabethan period as needlepoint designs

I didn't follow a pattern on this one, but I had thought the brown should go on the bottom, until I saw that it looked good upside down too. Still don't know which way I prefer. If I don't decide soon, I will really go with the two sleeves idea. I am going to follow a pattern with my next Bargello, as this "free lancing" stuff is harder than I thought!

When I researched bargello, I found reference to two needlepoint chairs in a castle somewhere, Italy maybe? Pretty interesting, I thought.

I like the darker on the top. The darker looks farther back in space and the lighter looks like another layer of mountains or whatever in the front.

I like the 2nd picture.

If this is any help to you I like the bottom one the best. :)

That is an awesome piece of work. It's going to look great whichever way you hang it.

Personally, I like the one on the bottom better. It's more intriguing, visually, IMHO. I would hang it that way.

Darker on the bottom...

I am leaning towards the darker on the bottom. I am putting the borders on, and here is a picture of where I am now. I really only want to put one sleeve on it, so a decision will be coming soon. :) I hope....
