I love your fabrics. It should be beautiful. I can't wait to see it finished.
Here is a picture of the one my daughter and I made for her oldest son. I am also sending the help files that I told you about. It might be too late for you to use them, but maybe they will be of some use..
Have a great time with that bargello.

Do you have pics of the others you've done? This is the second photo I've seen and I remember you've done four, right?
Thank you so much for the downloads... going to print those now.

I did cut one fabric the opposite direction--NOT selvege to selvege because of the print. I'll be careful--and batiks don't seem to stretch the way normal kinds of cottons do.
I still have a lot of cutting to do... but some day I'll be back with some photos of this done! :thumbup:
