This will be your most popular quilt tutorial EVER..these look so complicated and you have simplified it immensely. ..great job!!!

[wandacoleman]

Jenny, I would never be brave enough to rip those seams apart like that! If I were to rip my fabric I'd cry!

[susanvanvleck]

Oh this is going to my quilt bucket list!!

[nickibair]

Jenny, I absolutely love to watch your videos. You sure can tell how much you love to quilt. It's been so long since I've quilted and or bought any fabric, but I love jelly rolls, cake layers etc.

Loved this tutorial. Made this for my sister celebrate her 60th birthday

Outstanding video Jenny! You are so much easier to learn from than a paper pattern! I've attempted the Bargello years ago, and it still sits in a bin unfinished. So glad, you've done a tutorial on this pattern! I'm going to give it another try!

[ArmyNurse]

Jenny, my dear. I made a Bargello years ago, like you I made only one. If I had your direction I would have made more. It is fascinating to watch you take over those difficult quilts a simplified them. That is why I never get tired of your videos. Thank you. Hope to make the trip again to MSQC this fall.

Thank you, Jenny, for doing this tutorial! I asked you if you would and I'm so happy that you did! Looking forward to trying this out!
One of the things that I love about your tutorials is that you show how quilting doesn't have to be like 😨😠😢😭; it can actually be more like 🍭🌻🌞📯🎶 when it comes to the more complicated patterns. 💖👍

Jenny, you are the BEST! You are funny and talented, you make mistakes like the rest of us, and make the quilts look easy enough that even a newby like me can do it! Keep going, Girl!

[delisalusby]

I have always wanted to make a Bargello Quilt, Thanks Jenny, this method has taken away some of my concerns.

[DonnaDiskin]

Made a Bargello quilt years ago before 2-1/2 strips and color/fabric selection is a challenge. Jenny, thank you for this tutorial - I may just try my hand at a Bargello quilt again using your wonderful technique.

[mmills]

I have read books and looked at other tutorials, but thanks to you, I now believe I can do this! You are too cute and very funny!

[brendaromanuck]

Oh Jenny, you will never know how simple you have made this bargello pattern look. I have bought many books over the years trying to get up my nerve to make one but was too nervous that I would goof up. After watching your tutorial I am going to jump in with both feet and give it a try. Thanks once again for demystifying the bargello for me.

[shazb.]

Jenny, you’re the best. I had hopped you'd someday do a bargello but I thought you wouldn't because you teach in simple and all the tutorials I've watched on how to do this are elaborate and complicated. Your method of laying it out to eyeball and verify that you have the stairs sure beats numbering every little step I make. I purchased the Morning Melody pattern quit some time ago, 3 jelly rolls (Sparkling Waters Colorstory, Galaxy Pixie Strip, and Clear Skies, all from MSQC because I want to make this quilt so badly. And you came through for us ladies again. You took complex and simplified it so those of us who want to tackle above our skill (or confidence ) level can do it. You are a treasure Jenny. I'll even go so far as to say you are "Missouri's Star", and all the states love you. Thank You again.
