    I am soooooo enjoying reading the responses! I am slowly tackling both paper piecing and circles (or at least partial circles/curves) in my current NYB project, and yes, it's daunting, but I will persevere!

    I've seen some magnificant Bargello's. Some day - - - - -

    I made one SAS block for a demo, went pretty well. I just don't have the endurance to make 20 or so of the same block. BUT I WILL ONE DAY!

    Nothing intimidates me just some I don't have a desire to make. Wish I had more time to make the long list of those I do want to make. I'm currently working on three quilts as well as embroidering squares for kids quilts.

    I can't say I am intimidated... just some I don't have patience to complete... Dear Jane being one of them.. I love them but just know I would not ever live to see it finished.

    Mariner's compass, New York Beauty, anything with teeny tiny points. But I'm determined to tackle both one day, just to say I did it!

    Bargellos are super easy they just look hard. If you can do a trip around the world you can do a bargello
