It's beautiful. I got the book about 10 years ago and still haven't made one. It will be on my to do list.

I used two patterns from Margie Edie's Bargello Quilts. One was "Aurora Borealis" by Erica Meriwether and the 2nd was "Fractured Rhapsody" by the author herself. It got really fun near the end in that as I was moving all that color around during sewing I kept feeling like I was holding giant puddles of rainbow. Thank you for looking.

This is the prettiest Bargello quilit I've ever seen!! Bargellos usually "do my stomach funny" for some reason. Perhaps it's jealousy because I know I could never tackle one of those. But this gorgeous Bargello is soothing and very pleasing to my eyes (and my stomach

:lol: ). I love the color choices! :thumbup:

Oh my goodness, that is so wonderful! I'm a sucker for anything with a "rainbow" theme, so you had me just with your title. But the quilt itself is really stunning. Wow.....

I am almost incapable of making anything that doesn't hold all the colors of the rainbow. The only time that's possible is when I run out of my "usual" colors and play with whatever I've got. :oops: :lol:
