I'd be careful with the white one, it might stand out too much. The rest are terrific.

Great fabrics and pattern! I haven't done a bargello, but wonder if you don't have the number of fabrics it calls for, wouldn't it turn out looking different?

I agree!
I want to make one, but am afraid I will mess it up.

this one seems pretty straight forward. sew strips together, make a tube, cut various widths, sew back together, add borders.

I hope you'll be able to work with precuts or are you going to have to cut them all.

Duh!!!! I just noticed your first statement was that you'd just finished cutting them.

Oh...hard to tell from here, the distance and angle (lol). I still like the colors. Someone on another thread about bargellos suggested making the pic black and white to see how the colors work together that may help you decide on the order better or even which one stands out too much.
