A few weeks ago I was playing with some old strips from my scrap collection. See the post from January 13.
At that time I was wondering how these rather dated fabrics would work, especially since I did not take much time to blend them for a lovely colour run.
I now have them all cut and sewn together and I must admit to being rather surprised at how good those fabrics look together. I chose a wave type of pattern as that would distribute the colours fairly evenly across the top.
The piece does have a definite “late twentieth century” look, perhaps. Now it needs a border of some kind. Let’s see what I can find …

You have inspired me to dig out my old and dusties! I love how your bargello is turning out!
