    I bought 4 same sets of 2 1/2" strips from Connecting threads when they had a good sale on them. Had no idea what I was going to make with them at the time but then thought I'd like to do a bargello. I bought this same pattern from the quilt store. But because the strips I bought are all solid, I'm not sure it will work for this pattern. So I've ordered another bargello book that I hope my strips will work for.
    Where can I find the "beginning" post on you lovely quilt? Maybe it will give me some inspiration to buy more fabric for a quilt for the pattern.

    Very pretty. Can't wait to see it finished. I have a pattern but haven't got up the nerve to start it yet.

    Your quilt is going to be so awesome! What size will it be when finished?
    Awww...you are so sweet. What a cool job that would be: color picker! :-D :-D I'd just walk about quilting shops or wander through people's stash choosing colors to quilts I wouldn't have to make! Awesome! What's a good hourly rate to charge? :lol:

    The pattern says it'll be 41 x 55, but that's with three borders... I'm not sure if that's what I'll do. Border decisions will require much pondering I'm afraid. :roll:

    Well--I'm not sure they'll be very helpful, but here they are. Good luck!
