I just wanted to agree that this thread has been fascinating, and incredibly informative. Is there any way to lump it in with the tutorials?
Your finished product is going to be beautiful...
...and Tashana's quilt is already beautiful!

I don't really know how to do that. Does a moderator have to decide to do that? Maybe they'll want to wait until the quilt is finished so it goes all the way through to the end?

I like the changes you made. If you are truely trying to work the value, I think #14 in the new layout is a bit light for it's location.
Look forward to seeing your progress. It will be lovely.

new bargello
I agree. But I love the other colors!! We live on Galveston Bay, and I love the ocean, the sound, the colors, etc. I have been wanting to make a bargello, also. Your colors inspire me!!
Please show us your progress.

I've only made one bargello and it was from that same book - loved it, as did the recipient! I just wanted to comment on the switch to black & white as it does really help with seeing the value, though as mentioned above, doesn't take 'color' into account so well. I will use this technique next time I do another bagello. Thanks!
