Books in My Library: Bargello Sampler by Nancy Noland Kurten, 1975

Bargello Sampler by Nancy Noland Kurten, 1975.

No Table of Contents because it is a complete project rather than a stitch dictionary.

The booklet has hand drawn stitches as opposed to those created on a computer. Very easy key to follow for each pattern.

Nancy explains bargello concepts and takes you through setting up the sampler, selecting colors, and large easy to read diagrams for each of the stitch patterns (described generally and then specically for the sampler).

I particularly like how she incorporates a rose Medallion in the upper left corner. That makes several books that have showcased a design with a bargello pattern.
