Wow, @Pearl , that is stunning. I don't think you need to change anything. Apart from take off the random white labels when you've finished with them  :P

@Pearl no, no, no....don't take anything off. It's a lovely Bargello and quite a bit spooky that I should read this post tonight as I was tidying up in my sewing room the other day and found a large bag of Bargello strips cut out and ready to assemble....LOL..I always wondered why the Bargello I did years ago seemed a bit oddly small and unfinished...LOL...turns out it was....oddly small and unfinished!!!  I don't know quite what to do with a whole "panel worth" of Bargello strips now other than putting them back in the cupboard!

Thank you, my lovelies.  I’ll move it from the UFO drawer to the “needing to be sandwiched “ pile.   :D

It's 56" by 26". 

It was originally portrait, which is why I wasn't pleased with the proportions, but turning it landscape means it doesn't look disproportionately wide.
