    Just beautiful!!!! I really like your colors.They are so rich. You are so talented. Wish I could do a bargello quilt.! How big is the block, or are they different sizes?(excuse the ? if it has been asked and answered before).
    I'm too scared to try a bargello -I'd probably run into trouble and become
    frustrated and defeated-I'm such a wimp LOL!!! Bargellos and the double wedding ring pattern are the ones that present real mental hurdles for me.

    OK, I couldn't resist any longer, I ordered the book!! Couldn't resist the ONE block idea, even if it has a lot of corners to match. :-)

    Hope I can find fabrics to do it justice, just LOVE yours!!! THanks for sharing.

    Wow - it's hard to believe your gorgeous quilt is made from just 1 block! The wonder of bargello!

    I really like bargello and have been looking for a new book - haven't seen this one yet. Is it new? Who is the publisher? How many patterns are in it?

    I found my Bargello with a twist book here for much less:

    http://www.abebooks.com/servlet/Sear...wist&x=70&y=16

    I have bought books through them and never had any problems.


    THis is where I search for books before paying full price in the quilt stores.
