Here is a little update on the Bargello Pattern I posted about last time. The quilt is not complete as you can see. I have basted the round Bargello on this blue printed fabric. I created one border and I'm still working on the inner corners and there will be more border. It was
very fun to make and I am pleased with it. Here are some pointers.
- Use the organization tags provided for your fabric choices.
- Use the organization tags provided for the Sets.
- Remember the pattern makes 2 of these Bargello rounds. Set A is the first one and Set B is the second one. So keep it all very organized.
- Don't move fabric around while cutting wedges...you might forget what was the top-this is important- I accidentally did that on set two when I was trying to find comfortable position for cutting-somehow I turned the fabric all the way around and it totally messed up the illusion-luckily I had enough fabric to cut out another set.
- Pay attention when you start to cut each set making sure the pattern is correct.
- There is a note on pattern that I did not notice until I was done. "Note: Fabric 2 is the darkest blue in the cover sample.
- I'm thinking that using patterned fabric got me a little confused and I did not see the swirl at first until I focused on the dark blue The next one I do, I will use solids.
- There is a note on the front part to make a fabric swatch card to keep yourself organized. I used this so much because I was confused a lot. LOL
All in all, I enjoyed doing this one so much. It made me excited about all the different possibilities using different fabrics and setting them up. I hop you will try it!
