    Here is my first attempt at a bargello. It sure was fun... Didn't turn out too bad if I say so myself.... Quilter 1234

    I think it is wonderful! I just love the motion in a bargello. And the red,white, and blue is really striking! Good job!

    I'd say that is a great job..I haven't attempted this type of quilt yet. We have a group of women who make americana/patriotic themed quilts for the American Legion here. They deliver them to the VA hospital once a month and the people there love them! I'll have to show them a pic of this...bet they won't want to attempt it though, especially for a give away, but you never know!
    Great Job!

    it really wasn't that hard. The pattern is in the "Easy Quilts" magazine by Fons and Porter. The trip is to label and follow the chart..... I want to make it again in another theme. Quilter 1234

    Your quilt is striking!! I haven't tried a bargello, yet, but it's on my list of quilts to make.
