Bargello Quilt – and ancient pattern adapted to make this beautiful quilt
The Bargello design, also called a “flame stitch,” was originally stitched into canvas and primarily used to make upholstery. In this case, a traditional Bargello pattern was adapted to create the Amish quilt you see here. The maker used a mix of dramatic fabrics in shades of teal, gray, black and white to contrast within a complex pattern and create what appears to be three dimensional depth. Her quilting within the main part of the quilt emphasizes the pattern this by mirroring the peaks and valleys of this Bargello pattern. (Item 1025)
