Scrappy Bargello Quilt Top Finished!

This is the Scrappy Bargello Quilt top I started at Bonnie Hunter's workshop.  I thought it would be a good stash buster, but the results exceeded my expectations by a long shot.  I couldn't believe how great the fabrics blended, despite my doubts! I used only leftovers from 10 years of quilting, with Bonnie's tips of putting together fabrics that have a gradation of hue difference or somewhat contrasting to very contrasting.

This is another favorite special quilt.

Love the Braided border!


Such a pretty mosaic


Penguins, florals and surf waves


Even a Corgi in honor of our old dogs Erin and Moses!
