That looks absolutely gorgeous. I love the fabric selection. I've started a simpler bargello, but love the twist... Great work!!!

Beautiful. I'll bet Eddie is proud to take the blame for that!

Very pretty. I love the colors and "motion" of it.

Definitely! :)

I can't wait to see your finished one! I know it's become a total pain in the rear for you but it's going to be worth it when you have a gorgeous finished project!

I used a few batiks in this one and actually that was my first time working with batiks. I'm not totally decided if I like working with them, but they're so pretty I'm sure I'll use them again, many times, down the road. I bet a bargello made totally with batiks would be gorgeous. Make sure and post pics when you finish yours!

Your bargello is beautiful...and you should be proud of yourself for stepping out of that comfort zone we all find ourselves in. I too have a bargello planned for DH....he is always drawn to them when I show him pics even though he wouldnt know what one was if I called it that. He just knows what he likes.
