None of them pleased me too well. So I did a total redesign using strips cut at 2 1/2". I believe most of my designs are more effective in the size they were created - mostly smaller. Except for the ones I designed to be large. My quilting buds all tell me that they like my large Sunset and I did my best to make it great. I actually did it in a colourwash of fabrics just to add to the charm of it. That was the good news. The bad news is that this second book is not due to be released until July 2013. I truly hope you will wait for it.

I am thrilled that you are still creating my designs and I am always happy to help in any way that I can.
Keep on stripping - Eileen Wright

Thank you for your response. I read it and went and packed up the bargello strips and book...I will wait until the new book comes out. Hopefully, I will be able to selvage what I started, but, if not, then I'll find a different project for the few strips I had already cut. Waiting in anticipation for your new book.
