Bargello

Bargello is also known as Florentine Needlework. It's a form of embroidery where the stitches are in clusters of vertical stitches. It's very easy to do and you can actually do it on Aida Fabric instead of the traditional canvas.

Check out my first Bargello design below.

Here is the link to the pattern of the purple one. You can make your own color schemes if you want to.

    I would love to make a quilt from this pattern also, if possible. I absolutely adore the yellow/orange pattern, it kind of makes me think of a phoenix. :)

    This would be a nice dining seat pattern. Perhaps in tans and brown.

    Thanks so much for your sharing your beautiful work. I am going to attempt the purple pattern in Christmas colors. I haven't "bargelloed" in about 40 years. Thanks for inspiring me to needlepoint again.

    Thank you for the lovely pattern. I have already stitched one bargello design as a special present for my mum's 90th birthday. It is now framed and hanging on the wall. I would like to make some cushions to go with it and I think this will be one of them. I plan to make it in orange colours.
