It’s highly unlikely that a brand new, never before seen, original and unique Bargello needlepoint stitch can be created!
As anyone who has experimented with needle and thread has found, just when you think you’ve “discovered” a new Bargello stitch, you find that someone else invented it years, decades or even centuries before you came on the scene.
But…don’t let this discourage you from experimenting with different color combinations and working out various stitch patterns.
Bargello needlepoint comes alive with experimentation and creativity. You can produce something beautiful and useful each time you stitch a project.
Even when stitching charts made by well-known needlepoint designers, your creative expression through color, choice of canvas size, stitching technique and other experimentation will make the finished Bargello project a one-of-a-kind work of art.
Bargello needlepoint should be enjoyable and give you immense satisfaction while stitching as well as when the project is finally completed.
So, go ahead and try to create something new; but most of all have loads of fun while doing it!
