Thank You

And yes, it's absolutely stunning!

That is very interesting seeing the steps you went through. Your fabrics are great. Love the colors! Beautiful quilt. Some day I will tackle a bargello!

very pretty but easy????

Thanks so much for posting your bargello. It is fantastic and I just love the colours. You have helped me make up my mind about my own. I put it on here for opinions and called it 'stalled bargello'. I still couldn't decide whether or not to leave the yellow strip in but after seeing yours I am definitely taking it out. Now I can get it finished. Thanks again. I really love your quilt.

It's one of the most beautiful bargellos I've seen. Send it my way..... I'll cherish it :wink: I would LOVE to make one.... and I'd use the very same colors you did. Awesome! Your borders are terrific, they really frame your work.

How absolutely gorgeous!!! Would you tell me the name of book/pattern you used? You have made me want to make a bargello quilt for myself. Your photos were a great inspiration. Great job!! Lots to be proud of!

nana4baj 02-28-2011 11:35 AM

How beautiful, I really want to make a bargello, but they look so difficult............. :) :)

My thoughts exactly. Also though, I was wondering if you press you seams open or to one side since they match so well? There was a whole discussion about this topic recently so this question popped into my head when I saw all your seams. Thanks!

Aaaahhhhh....so nice

Thank You
The instructions indicate which direction to iron the seams so they fit together well.

Amazing! I'm starting to like the Bargellos more and more, but I still don't think I will ever make one. I love your colors!

That is the Alto's Quilt Cut 2. It's an excellent precision cutting tool.

My DH strongly urged its purchase at our last quilt show... originally I didn't see its value...now DH chuckles when I am using it...efficiently gets the prep work out of the way, particularly cutting angles quick-n-accurately.
