I designed this pattern myself using a free online Bargello design program called Bargello Sketcher 1.0. It took a bit of figuring out, but it has been fun playing with the program. (I am not really good at computers!) Just google it and check it out. You can make curvy or not curvy Bargello patterns.

Unfortunately, I didn't save this pattern when I made it, or I would just copy it and sent it to you.

Check it out if you are interested. Just google Bargello Sketcher 1.0 and read all about it. It may be something you enjoy playing with.

As I am sitting here looking at my quilt on my design wall, I realized that might have been a way easier way to make this quilt.

(Sorry if that isn't too clear. Go look at a Trip around the World quilt and see if you see what I am talking about.)
