Interested in Bargello?

[sharonb]

I am bumping this to a seperate thread as otherwise I think people might not see it

Janet is interested in starting a bargello group this is a straight cut and paste making the suggestion

"I'm passionate about Bargello. I've been stitching Bargello patterns for almoat 40 years and I never get tired of doing them.

But Bargello today is more than just needlepoint. There are people making Bargello quilts, beadwork in Bargello patterns, and so much more.

I'd like to start a group on Stitchin Fingers for people who love Bargello, no matter what you medium might be. There we can share our projects, take part in Bargello challenges (someone makes a pattern and we all interpret it in our own colors and style), and talk about color schemes, books, and other resources we find.

I'm also thinking that if you want to learn Bargello, you can come here to find someone to teach and mentor you.

Any takers?
Keep Stitching,
Janet"

this is where you will find Janet on the network.

I'm interested! I've made several bargello cushions and hangings in my time - and have a project picked out for when I next get "bargello..ish" :-)

I think its a great idea, and I am definitely intersted.

Bargello really intrigues me. At one time, it even intimidated me... well, maybe the big quilts still do!

Count me in!

Hi Janet

I love bargello too and did a lot in the 70s and 80s. I would like to try it in beads on crazy quilting and would be interested to work as a group and share.

I am not normally into Bargello, but am still considering making a quilt with these instructions:
