New book...new Bargello designs! This pattern is a variation of the Hungarian Bargello Filler Stitch.

Day 61: Purple Bargello Flame Pattern
The Flame Stitch pattern is never outdated. Dorothy Phelan created this variation on pp. 42-43 in Traditional Bargello.

I used Silk n’ Ivory threads ...

It has 1-1, 2-1, 2-1, 4-1 and 6-1 step rows. Careful attention must be paid to color placement as well as ...

Found on pp. 46-48 in Traditional Bargello by Dorothy Phelan, it has ...
Day 64: Colorful Bargello Border Variations
These clever borders use a variation of the Old Florentine Bargello Filler Stitch. They would make great designs for belts, bracelets and luggage straps. I've stitched all three charts on a 3" square on 18-mesh needlepoint canvas. A larger canvas mesh will result in a wider design strip. The middle and bottom designs ...
Day 65: Minimalist Florentine Peaked Design
Using the basic Florentine stitch as described in this Bargello pattern, makes for an interesting and eye-catching design.

Day 66: New Wave Bargello Needlepoint Design
Traditional Bargello by Dorothy Phelan has some very creative and interesting designs.

When designed for a pillow or cushion, the pattern offers many possibilities for color variations; but for ...
Day 67: Diagonally Stitched Bargello Design
One of the most exciting things about Bargello needlepoint is the directional stitching flow. In addition to the vertical and horizontal ways the stitches are formed on the canvas, one must sometimes work in different directions.

Day 68: Zigzag Double Peak Bargello Design
Dorothy Phelan writes in Traditional Bargello that the Zigzag Double Peak Bargello Design is a good preparation for working Hungarian point. The Bargello pattern is found on pp. 58-59.
