    No kidding! Dumb idea really since I really had little quilting experience. Trust me, I have a lot of pot holders made from WRONG colors and cruddy sewing! I want to take on a Bargello. I tried one with a jelly roll, but the colors really didn't vary enough to showcase the wonderful craziness of a great Bargello! I haven't given up yet. My problem is my own garish style. I melt when I see the wonderful pastel double wedding rings and Irish chains, but when shopping, I tend to go for the bold and exciting. DH still wants a traditional double wedding ring quilt. I hope I can make myself do it!

    Thank you all for your wonderful compliments. I tend to be hard on myself.
