Challenge 2017/18 - #34 & 40, Bargello Quilts

In the spring I was booked to teach a Bargello class at Pinheads Quilting Company in Airdrie. I started by following a pattern, made a huge mistake and made it my own!

I made the first Bargello sample using 2 (40 strip) pre-cut strip sets. The quilt turned out quite big and I thought that some quilters may not want to invest so much time and money on a large project as they learn the technique.

I stitched a smaller wall hanging using a single (20 strips) pre-cut strip set. The quilt went together quickly and then I had some fun quilting it!

Stitching a bargello quilt is quite easy as long as you keep your strip sets in order!
