Description
A Bargello? Yes, it is! This is not your standard Bargello but circular instead. But you do all the cutting with a rotary cutter and rulers just like any other patchwork project.
This online workshop will show you how to select and order your fabrics, cut, sew and use a wedge rule to create a spiraling illusion, then move on to the finishing touches including edging, quilting, and borders to bring it all together. Afraid of all those small pieces? Don't be - this design is strip pieced. No circles or arches to cut, all straight piecing. Join our class and find out how much easier it is to make than it looks.
Level: Suitable for intermediate to advance quilters.
