    Default Designing a Bargello

    A few of you Bargello fans have been taking steps to design your own quilts. Having made a couple of dozen bargellos, I too took the leap. I just wasn't happy with the final results but I made it for a friend and she is delighted with the quilt. The quilt didn't match what I had envision in my mind. You will see the design I made using EQ5 (picture is last), then the strips cut and the last picture is tweaking the borders. Hope this helps someone with some inspiration !!
