Thought I would share a picture of my first bargello. I took a class, and the quilt now hangs in my office at work.

Wonderful movement in your beautiful quilt. I love the fabrics you used too.

Now THAT is one gorgoius bargello! I'll be making one in the near future and I ordered a book on bargello quilts so I'm awaiting for it to come so I can see how it is done. This book I ordered had instruction for squares or by strips and such, but I 'm think it is all sewn in stradas and then cut either in to diffrent size strips and or blocks. Have a great day, Huggies, Fay

I love it-you did a great job! Was it hard to do? I am wanting to make a bargello.

zoey 08-17-2010 08:41 AM

I have always wanted to do one of those quilts did you find it very hard to construct? I've been quilting for over 10 years so I know the basics etc but that pattern always looks so hard to do.

sewmuchmore 08-17-2010 08:42 AM

Wow that is amazing I love the Bargello one of these days I am going to give it try.

I had the pattern, and took a class. The most important thing was to take it one strip at a time, and use a design wall. I put all the strips up on the wall, and could see any mistakes (there were quite a few) before sewing the strips together.

It all starts with the strip sets that get sub cut into different width strips.

Stunning! I would love do a bargello quilt but not sure I have the patience! I've had some say "they're easy" and others tell me to "run away! they're a nightmare"....

Yours is truly beautiful!!

fliedermaus 08-17-2010 08:47 AM

oooooo...pretty!

zoey 08-17-2010 09:16 AM

Thank you for your answer still looks so complicated. Yours is just beautiful the movement and the colors in the quilt. Great job!!

I did a diagonal through each little square following the flow of the fabrics with a varigated thread that had all the colours in it.

Beautiful!

tooMuchFabric 08-17-2010 02:04 PM

Man that looks tough. Do you rip your hair out along with the stitches if you get a patch out of order??
I definitely need to try one of these gah-juss beauties.
