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 color patterns with overdyed threads to work the 4-2 step stitches.

I used Caron’s Watercolours, and DMC Pearl Cotton to work the Bargello design.
