I made something similar to a slide rule to follow which row I was working on, on the Illusion chart. Makes it much easier to know where I was at.

Thanks for your kind comments everyone! I agree with you, Diane K M, about bargello's. This is just the 2nd one I've done and like every other quilt pattern I do, I re-write the pattern (and enlarge, for this one, the assembly charts using Excel)

It is true that they are not as difficult as they seem. Maybe some think that you have to sew all the little squares together instead of making strips.

I really like Lockwood's patterns! Be sure to show your "Illusion" !
