Day 32: Monochromatic Hearts and Diamonds

February 1, 2010 By Bargello Love Leave a Comment

This monochromatic Bargello pattern is a variation on yesterday’s design with changes in thread colors and shades.

The use of a monochromatic color scheme produces a totally different Bargello design effect that makes the pattern motifs softer with less definition between them.

Taken from pp 84-85 in Bargello: An Explosion In Color by Margaret Boyles, this 4-2 step Bargello pattern does not produce an optical illusion.
