A short time ago, we had a QB thread about how we ended up on the board. I finally tracked down the photo of the quilt that lead me here. I was out of work for a couple of months, and took to cleaning the house. I came across an unfinished scrappy quilt top I started years ago with my grandmother, and started looking into how I might finish it. During this time, I went to a friend's wedding and was mesmerized by these quilts in the church foyer. When I got home, I began feverishly searching online for quilts like this. I had never heard of bargello, but in the search I ended up here - and stayed.
