dsb38327 (Dorothy) Thank you so much for loving me enough to teach me all about Quilting:) Your the coolest sister a girl could have:) You always seem to have all the answers to my many questions:)

Wow..that is beautiful. I love the colors.

Joan Abear 02-02-2013 12:53 PM

Thanks, atcually we went shopping at Dovies in Channelview, Texas and picked out the fabric I wanted to use. Dorothy had used yellow as her main color on her quilt, so I wanted to use pink and that is how it turned out. Maybe Dorothy will post a picture of the one she did and you can see how beautiful it is:)

Wow!! Your choice of pattern and fabrics is awesome.

I've never attempted bargello. What a fun way to tackle it by doing it with your sister! It's lovely.

nannyrick 02-03-2013 05:32 AM

WOW!!! You did a great job. It is gorgeous.

Barb_MO 02-03-2013 05:35 AM

Looks good. Looks like you two stayed organized and every color is just where it should. Your sister is a good helper indeed

Barb_MO 02-03-2013 05:39 AM

I do still have the pattern as a pdf file. PM me if anyone is interested.

Joan, I love the Bargello more each time I see it. Watching you make it was so very special.
We learned how to make it from Barb_Mo tutorials on the QuiltingBoard. I don't know if she still has it for sale
but she did on page 35 of this post. She is a very good teacher. I learned a lot from her tutorials.

I really like your quilt and it is the first bargello I like. I don't care for the large pattern ones. Great job you and your sister did. Seeing yours I may try one with that pattern.

Joan Abear 02-03-2013 06:14 PM

Yes, I will make another:)
