TH-107 & F-208 ... Twisted Bargello
Joan Oldham

Bargello quilts are always dramatic, but this one is exceptional. The classic bargello is twisted into a delightful design enhanced with contrasting fabrics. Believe it or not, these quilts are easier to construct than you might think! This bargello quilt's panels are strip pieced, cut to size, unstitched and then reassembled following a graph to produce the wonderful twisted effect. Award winning Joan Oldham will take you step by step through the process to achieve incredible results using the Husqvarna VIKING Designer SE sewing machine. Machine piecing and rotary cutting experience are prerequisites. The quilt may be made as a wall hanging or bed size quilt.
