Bargello Quilt

bargello
Confetti, Baby Bargello Wall Hanging or Bed Runner. 40” x 64" Intermediate level (or very experienced beginner). This is a surprisingly fast quilt project. I will share tips and tricks to make this a project that you will want to make again and again. It can even be a stash buster because we will be using two full width of fabric strips in 20 different colours. Do you have a jelly roll and you don’t know what to do with it? This might be the right project if there are two of each colour. The pattern can be as dynamic or as subtle as you like - your colours will make this quilt your own. As well as making a wave patterned bargello, participants will learn the principles and techniques behind bargello design and possibly go on to start creating versions of their own. Experience sewing an accurate 1/4” seam (or at least a consistent seam allowance) is essential for this project.
