Happy Dancing! Go Blue!

Kate, your work is really beautiful. Loved all your quilts.

That's absolutely beautiful, Kate. I love it. One of my very early quilts was a bargello - I really enjoy the technique. I always meant to do a more complex one like yours, but haven't yet >g< It'll have to go to the back of a very long queue, unfortunately; but yours has inspired me to at least put it there. Thank you - it's really lovely (did I say that yet?). . In message , Kate G. writes

All I can say is Whow!! Stunning. I love it. Congratulations.!

Kate, that is beautiful! How I envy your husband! I must hunt up that pattern, it's one I would like to make.

Kate your work is beautiful. Thank you for sharing.

Beautiful! Lucky DH! Also enjoyed the rest of your quilts while I was there. Wow! Makes me want to spend the day sewing! The wedding star is one on my list of projects to do, but everytime I've thought it was time to start one, I've got bogged down trying to pick fabrics. I really like the way your choices went together!

I purchased the pattern -- but the more I read it the more confused I got. Then a LQS offered a class for this quilt... "with a technique to make it easily!"

I signed up ... and it really wasn't too terribly complicated the way they broke it down. You took

20 fabrics and sewed them together so you had about 6 or 8 pieces that ran from 1-20. Then you cross cut them at varying widths. (they had a cheat sheet) Then you sewed them back together. You occasionally had to split strips (those 1-20 cross cuts) -- but all-in-all.... found it VERY do-able!

This was the Judy Neimeyer (is that spelled right) paper-pieced pattern. I was truly amazed that it really came together (all those points) without too much fussing and fidgeting. It really is a pretty pattern -- and my long-arm quilter did a FANTASTIC job quilting it. I"m not sure the photo does is anything close to justice on the quilting!

Very nice! I've often thought about making one of these. I have made a bargello heart - is it much different?

Wow! Go Blue indeed! (No trouble to say it, I was born in Michigan :-) Roberta in D

Thanks for the encouragement. That is the pattern that I have.

The photo did not do anything to show off the quilting, as I didn't even notice it.!

Howdy!

What a beauty! Congrats on Finishing the quilt, Kate! ;-)

Blue & Yellow: excellent choices!

Piggy backing here. That IS a great quilt! It would look even better in Black and Gold (Hawkeyes) :-) I'm working on a simple small bargello in a black and gold Asian print combination (a Sweet Treats kit). I'm not sure I could manage that wonderful twist pattern. I agree with you on the piecing /quilting dilemma. I'm a good piecer and a pretty mediocre quilter. I always feel like I'm "ruining" my piecing with my quilting. KJ

oh, it's beautiful. And I love the snakes quilt and the critters and .... Heidi from Germany Sandy Ellison schrieb:
