About This Pattern:
Bargello is a striking and historically rich textile technique that dates back to the 16th century, originating in Italy. The classic version uses wool yarn arranged in long, parallel stitches, creating an intricate pattern that seems to flow in waves. This method was often used for creating elaborate tapestries.
In modern quilting, Bargello has been adapted to fabric strips, allowing quilters to replicate the flowing, undulating patterns of the original technique but using fabrics of varying widths—sometimes as narrow as a quarter inch. The beauty of Bargello quilting lies in the careful arrangement of these strips. By staggering different widths and colors, quilters can produce a vast range of geometric and abstract shapes, often creating a sense of movement or depth.
Creating a Bargello quilt requires not just precision in sewing but also a strong understanding of color theory. The interplay of hues and shades, combined with the precise stitching, gives each piece a dynamic, almost 3D quality. Each quilt can look unique based on the strip sizes, color choices, and overall design—making it a perfect blend of art and craftsmanship.
In short, a Bargello quilt isn’t just a display of technical sewing skill but also a reflection of the quilter’s artistic vision and understanding of how colors and patterns can interact.
Measurements:
Queen (104″ W x 110″ L)
A queen mattress is 60″ wide and 80″ long, therefore this quilt would have a 22″ drop on each side.
All quilts are long enough to allow for a significant drop at the foot of the bed as well as a nice pillow tuck so there is no need for shams.
