2010 Resolution: To Stitch 365 Different Bargello Needlepoint Designs--One Each Day!

Day 239: Two-Way Curvature Bargello Needlepoint Design
This two-way curvature bargello needlepoint pattern introduces Bargello Is Easy by Peri Wolfman. Found on pp. 34-35, it looks the same regardless of how it is positioned because there is no up or down side. To keep the bargello design from appearing as if it has a top and bottom, use random ...
Day 240: Long Diagonal Curve Bargello Needlepoint Design
Another attractive bargello pattern is a long diagonal curve from the lower left corner of the canvas to the upper right corner. Found on page 36 in Bargello Is Easy by Peri Wolfman, this bargello line design has a simple 4-2 step. It looks great when worked in two or more colors. I ...
Day 241: Curved Flame Bargello Needlepoint Design
Here is another diagonal curved bargello needlepoint design that includes a flame pattern. Found on page 37 in Bargello Is Easy by Peri Wolfman, this bargello design has a 4-2 step, and can be mirrored or reversed to form additional creative bargello patterns. I used Caron’s Overdyed Watercolours, and DMC Pearl Cotton ...

This bargello needlepoint line design forms a diagonal stripe with varying stitch lengths. Found on page 42 in Bargello Is Easy by Peri Wolfman, pattern stitches are worked in a 4-2 step in groups of two from the top left of the canvas to the bottom right. I'm in an overdyed thread ...
Day 243: Hearts and Peaks Bargello Needlepoint Design
A deceptively easy bargello needlepoint line design, today’s pattern forms hearts and peaks in two colors with each stitch stepping up or down one across the canvas. Found on page 52 in Bargello Is Easy by Peri Wolfman, it is mostly worked over 7 stitches, and is the last bargello design ...

September starts out with a new book and the lion rampart, a traditional heraldic pattern worked in bargello needlepoint. Taken from The Margaret Boyles Bargello Workbook, this collection of original designs offers a stunning pattern for a rectangular shaped pillow worked in 4-2 step with gold, red, blue and white threads. The ...
Day 245: Cross Heraldic Bargello Needlepoint Design
Today’s design is part two of a traditional heraldic pattern worked in bargello needlepoint. Found on pp. 4-5 in The Margaret Boyles Bargello Workbook, this whimsical bargello pattern resembles a coat-of-arms when worked next to the lion and rampart from Day 244. I used J.L. Walsh Silk Wool, and Silk n' Ivory ...
Day 246: Bargello Needlepoint Photo Frame
A family photo or delicate landscape shows to great advantage when placed in a photo frame with today’s easy bargello needlepoint border.
