What a delightful website, Althea! I was researching some information on Bargello for a customer of mine who is taking on a new project, and I ran across your site. What a delectable source of information for Bargello enthusiasts! Would you mind if I mentioned your website in an upcoming Discountneedlework.com newsletter? ~Leigh, Owner

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 ...

Walsh Silk Wool, and Silk n' Ivory ...
