    I appreciate your wonderful lil' quilts. I started a quilt using the Bargello technique. It became a nightmare and is sitting in a box for "someday." It is a wave pattern and I was hand stitching it. The 1/2" wide strips kept coming undone, so I'd double stitch them. Even the 1" didn't like to stay stitched when I turned them to stitch into the pattern. I just need to get it back out and try again. Your lil' projects encourage me to try again. I was aiming to make a large quilt; probably need to make it into a wall hanging.

    Those are really cool! I love your combining bargello and scenery/pictures. Very neat. I'm going to have to find the other ones you did, too! Great job!

    This is so easy because the strips vary in size 2 1/2 to 6 1/2.
