Hi!
I posted about a Bargello the other day. I got the top done, and am wondering about it now. Do you think the colors blend in too much? Also, I have some fabrics left over,(the strips I posted of) and I think I could make it a bit bigger with them. Do you think it'd be good to do this, or save the strips for another day?

Thanks!!
Emily

Hi Emily, I don't know much about Bargello but I thought they were SUPPOSED to blend. In any event I like it a lot :D
As for making it larger that really depends on where you plan to use it.
Good job! Thanks for sharing :D

You could make pillow shams and decorator pillows to match the quilt with the strips you have left over.

I agree with Mamabear. Neat.

I love it. I wouldn't change a thing. It is beautiful. My favorite color too. If you get tired of it send it to me. I'll take really good care of it.

I think it looks very nice. Of course, blue is my favorite color. But I would still like it, even if it were pink. :thumbup:

I couldn't imagine where your strip set colors were going til I saw it in the Bargello. Wow, what a great surprise. I'm anxious to do one when I get time to quilt again.

Got remodeling going on around here so I can't take time to quilt. I'm having withdrawals so I enjoy cking out everything on this site. Pictures, chat, tutorials, etc.

Emily,

I think it's breathtaking!!! That's the wonderful thing about bargellos - you never really know what you have until you get a panel done - and then you are delighted!!

The blending is wonderful. Love the blues. I wouldn't change a thing. Hope I can help you out with your blues. LOL

Looks good. You could make it larger. Do you have enought sewn panels to have the pattern go to small pieces and the back to the larger pieces? If you end at the edge with very small stips it will want to curl up.
