Love them both! Your use of color and design on both is fantastic! Wish you were a neighbor so you could teach me how to quilt! ;-)

I LOVE the tablecloth. The flowers are exquisite and fanciful. Your bargello is beautiful also. I too am still smarting after finishing my first bargello. I'm starting to think I might try another one.

a lady who works at our lqs had made one of those squares and i looked at it real good, came home and started cutting squares out of my old fqs and scraps. i had no idea what i was going to end up with until few days later a friend was over and i had it laying on kitchen table to cut jump threads and she said hey, that would make a beautiful tablecloth - the rest is history.

on the tablecloth i did not try to put colors together, just snatched and grabbed and cut and sewed. the bargello was a kit from my lqs - colors picked out by somebody there. i had to work the day of the class so my friend took the class then came to my house and gave me couple classes.

Love them both! I'd be worried about using the first as a tablecloth, though... sure wouldn't want anything spilled o it.
