I would also like to try a bargello someday. I love the colors that you are making yours with.

The colors are very dramatic :) nice.. I have no idea what a bargello is ... but guessing it is "a cloth of many colors" smiling.. I will keep looking for more details..

Bargello quilts are made to copy the needlepoint, bargello. There are all kinds of shapes/patterns you can do with them. Here are a few pictures of pretty ones that I found on the internet. These are just some of the ways you can design them.
They are awesome.

Thank you brennalee. The pattern for my avatar is one that I made. It's called a Carpenter's Star. I made my daughter a beautiful quilt out of it. It was totally awesome, if I do say so myself. :o) Here is a link to pictures of her quilt.

I also made one called Dawn's quilt in warm colors. Here's a link to see it.

I had so many people asking about this pattern that I also posted the pattern for everyone to enjoy. Here is a link to the pattern. It is very simple to make, all squares and half square triangles.

Thank you everybody for all the interest in this project that I've got going. I sure hope it comes out alright! I have no idea what size it'll be. I went to sew one of the strips, the blue with little white dots, and since it was the end of the fabric that I had, only about half of the strip is the 2 1/2", then it tapers off.

I had a great idea yesterday though, since I'm afraid that I'm going to run out of fabrics. I'm thinking about changing the wedges colors. I think I might just make the wedges out of purples. That would make my other main colors last longer.

Here's a picture of the purples that I'm considering using, plus a blue that I don't know if I'll use or not. It's kind of blurry, sorry! Just thought that I'd keep you in the loop!
