My Diamond Jubilee Bargello
 
2 Attachment(s)
Thanks to all of you that encouraged me to do a Bargello. I jumped in and finally finished it, just hope there are no quilt police around. Not sure I like the colors but I thought it would be one my daughter would like. No, she chose a rag Christmas tree quilt instead. Oh well, maybe it will grow on me. My camera is not the best to take pictures but you can get an idea. I have to get it quilted now.

It is spectacular. After looking at these pictures, I want to make one. I love your choice of colors and the pattern looks sooo complex. What was the name of the pattern? You did a fantastic job.

The pattern is Diamond Jubilee Bargello by Nancy Smith. Her instructions are great.

I too love the colours. You definitely jumped in -- with both feet. Beautiful.

jad1044 12-04-2012 04:33 PM

It's beautiful - if you can't find a home for it - let me know - I love it!!! one of my favorite quilt patterns; am yet to make one - but it is on my bucket list.... and the colors are great!

cdmmiracles 12-04-2012 04:41 PM

wow that is absolutely beautiful......I'm not even a big fan of green, but I love the combination. I purchased that pattern a while back, now can't wait to start. I may even still your color combo if you don't mind......do you mind sharing what the fabrics were????? Again, it's amazing. How many different shades of each color is that?

rushdoggie 12-04-2012 04:45 PM

your daughter is NUTS, that thing is GORGEOUS!

alikat110 12-04-2012 05:07 PM

I am going to start one after christmas. I love yours! Colors are great!

Roma Bauder 12-04-2012 05:39 PM

I think its beautiful,I want to do one,just havent got the nerve yet!!

Dolphyngyrl 12-04-2012 05:40 PM

Just stunning, excellent color choice, it very hard to choose colors for bargellos because you don't know how they will look together. Took me about 3 hours just to pick colors for mine

joyce888 12-04-2012 05:41 PM

Wow it's gorgeous!

Charming 12-04-2012 05:43 PM

WOW is all I could say.. Just beautiful I love it and I wish I can get the nerve to do one myself...I am working on the thought though ;-)

francie yuhas 12-04-2012 05:53 PM

Nice work! We never said the kids knew their heads from a hole in the wall anyway!

Jackie Spencer 12-04-2012 06:53 PM

Crystal, the fabrics are from my LQS. I know one was RJR and one Kaufmann. I just picked whatever matched, black, greens, tan and cream, eleven colors. I would feel honored if you used my color combo.
