Hi there dyer804! You are behind! :lol: :lol: I made this without a pattern. I cut my own strips, made my own design and made it all here online under this topic. I finished it in May or something, (I don't remember) and entered it in the McCall's Quilt Design Star Contest. I am a finalist now. You should read this whole topic or look at the pictures as it is pretty long. That will explain everything.

I'm glad you like it. It was really fun making it! Enjoy!
Happy Quilting!
Marilyn

Thanks for the update! I'll have to take the time to go through the whole topic. Looks like fun.

WOW! I am speechless and red-eyed too! Just went through all 26 pages at 2 am. Took over an hour! Your quilts are absolutely fantastic. Hope you win the contest. I might even have to attempt one of these qullts. It was such a pleasure and eye-opener to watch your progress on them. You must be a genius! Congratulations.

Thank you very much, Sherrie and Boohoofish! I appreciate it. There are other people on here (on the Quilting Board) that are making their own Swish! bargello. Here's a link to one of them.

I have the pattern if you decide to make one Sherrie! Glad you liked the story and pictures of how it was made.
Happy Quilting!

I'm having an operation on my Rt shoulder on Friday and that would make a nice 'little' present for me. :lol: Jinnie

I had my left shoulder repaired a year ago. Make sure that you do all the PT that your doctor tells you to do. It hurts like the dickens! but its essential for a full recovery.
Good luck with your surgery.
