Just Beautiful is all i can say , Love the colors ,would you care to tell me what book it is out of Thanks Nimble Thimble

taiboo 04-23-2010 12:32 PM

Thank you :-) This isn't out of any book...It is out of my head LOL. The book from the class was simply called Bargello Quilts.

Just beautiful! I love your points. I recently did my first one, but was not as brave with design as you. You have now inspired me to do another.

Wow!! It's beautiful! I want to learn how to do bargello, but haven't found a class yet, and I'm too stoopid to make sense out of the tutes. Good job!

Well, I must be stoopid, like I said, because I can't figure it out from her tute. I need a hands-on class, I guess.

colleen53 04-23-2010 02:40 PM

i would be happy to help if you like... more in terms of understanding from a beg quilters language..lol

Of course it has all of my fav. colors in it too. Fantastic job! Thanks for sharing & will be looking forward to seeing your French Braid. Another wonderful pattern.

I love it - purple is my favourite colour - inspiring another newbie to get in the sewing room. I have bookmarked this to show my son - he wants a quilt, and that would great in blues.

Bevanger 04-24-2010 09:31 AM

Wow! You did an awesome job!

omak 04-24-2010 09:35 AM

Well done on your bargello, and you will be able to do the French Braid quite easily, I am sure. I don't know how difficult you found the Bargello, but comparatively, the braid will be a snap, almost mind numbing work - - that is when you becoming thankful for the different colors <g> <wave>

GrammaNan 04-24-2010 09:51 AM

Gorgeous. I love purples!

greencat 04-24-2010 02:44 PM
