Beautiful fabrics! I've done one Bargello and loved it. I'll probably be doing another sometime this year. Hope you have fun with yours and looking forward to pictures!

Here is a picture of the one my daughter and I made for her oldest son. I am also sending the help files that I told you about. It might be too late for you to use them, but maybe they will be of some use..
Have a great time with that bargello.

Julie--wozers is that gorgeous!! Perfect for a guy, too! I love how you pick your colors--with the creams and the black accenting... how about I send you what I have ready and you put it together? I'll even send strips rather than yardage! :lol:

Do you have pics of the others you've done? This is the second photo I've seen and I remember you've done four, right?

Thank you so much for the downloads... going to print those now.

I have over half the strips cut, then discovered one batik was short--35" rather than 40-42". I didn't want that to cause troubles later, so I took about seven fabrics to a Mennonite shop this morning and found three more that had possibilities... I used two here.

I did cut one fabric the opposite direction--NOT selvege to selvege because of the print. I'll be careful--and batiks don't seem to stretch the way normal kinds of cottons do.

I still have a lot of cutting to do... but some day I'll be back with some photos of this done! :thumbup:

Delicious, inviting, yet soothing colors. Thanks for sharing.
