Bargello - Reflections
 
1 Attachment(s)
This quilt is from the book, Bargello with a Twist. It is called reflections. I loved it when I saw it and wanted to try out this type of bargello, so here is the result. Just finished the top so far but I wanted to share. Sorry this isn't the best pic I ever took.

Just beautiful, bargello didn't enter my mind when I saw it because of the very different and interesting pattern, it is so striking.

Sincerely, Antylu

Such a bright beautiful quilt! I love the colors you chose - almost looks neon! Great job!

RedGarnet222 08-30-2012 09:34 PM

Thank you very much everyone. I really appreciate all the sweet comments. My first bargello. It was a challenge but not all that hard once you begin. The book kind of taxed my pea brain... LOL.

audsgirl 08-30-2012 09:35 PM

That is beautiful! It's the most unusual bargello I've ever seen. Your colors are wonderful.

Beautiful!!

RedGarnet222 08-31-2012 07:50 AM

Thanks so much everyone! There is very dark chocolate brown blocks that is before the black that is hard to see in the picture. I have one more planned down the road. It was fun to make.

There is a tutorial in the archives by cathy. Her quilt was my inspiration to buy the book and try it.

Your quilt is absolutely gorgeous. My local guild did this in a class. I see what you mean about the book. My pea brain was also taxed by the book. The method really is nice once you get going. I had a good teacher too. Wasn't it fun deciding the layout??? There were so many examples in the book.

It is beautiful. The process in that book reminds me more of Seminole Patchwork.

JudyTheSewer 08-31-2012 02:47 PM

Wow! I love that pattern. Those colors are fabulous! I sure hope my sense of color improves so that I can create striking combinations like that.

RedGarnet222 08-31-2012 04:26 PM

Thank you all so very much!
