Personally, bargello patterns do not ring my chimes but for some folks, they are the most fun thing one can stitch. Thanks to Donna and her daughter, I have a link to someone who not only loves bargello, she loves using it in retro furnishings. Now I won't go that far, but that elephant sure is charming....

At least that elephant doesn't need intervention - as opposed to Karen's :)
[Jane looks at Palma and snickers.]
For those who don't know Karen, she has a pink elephant magnet she uses to hold needles that always seems to be upside down or tipsy on her canvases. We think the elephant has a drinking problem. What's your opinion?
By the way, I think Karen's pink elephant magnet is a Needle Minder from Elizabeth Turner. This is the first link where I found it.
