    Default Eileen Wright's Glacier Bay

    I had this 6 pack of TT Tonga batiks called Sea Glass. A few weeks ago, it finally dawned on me to use these fabrics to make Eileen's Bargello pattern Glacier Bay (2nd pattern):

    So I think these colors will work. Any suggestion would be very much appreciated:

    I think it will be gorgeous but you are one of the QB's bargello experts so I think you definitely don't need my input on it!

    You already have my input, but I am going to just repeat myself. I think it looks great. You are the best selector of fabric that I know.

    I think it will be lovely. It looks like you've got a value range that is similar to the one she used and you've also got some added interest with the subtle patterning in the batiks you've chosen. Can't wait to see it.
