Thank you everybody for writing and telling me that you want the pattern. It's nice to know that a few are going to sell when I get it done, 9 so far! It also helps so I know how many copies I need (minimum) when I get them printed.
And sunflower, I put you on the list. Thank you!

Hi everybody! This is just an update on the pattern making process. I have the diagram finished. Today I finished figuring out the fabric requirements, to the best of my knowledge. So, now I am cutting out another Bargello with my fabric requirements to make sure they are correct. I am cutting the strips now. I have the first 2 colors cut.

I debated and debated on which turquoise (light or dark)strip to use in the quilt. Here are pictures of both options. Which one do you like? I'll post later which color I went with and see if it matches your choices. (Hopefully!) Talk to you soon.

Thank you very much Linda! I love the quilting! I think Tom did an excellent job! I don't know if it's freehand or a pattern or a pantograph, whatever that is. :oops: I'll have to call him tomorrow and ask and then I'll let you know.

Thanks again!
Marilyn

I just called Tom and asked him how he did the quilt and it's freehand! Can you believe that? He's awesome!

Thanks Marilyn! Yes, I can believe it's freehand. It looks great. I was just hoping there was a pantograph with that pattern cuz my freehand ain't worth a dang. LOL
