Schnibbles #8?

I think this is Andee's eighth schnibbles quilt, one a month I understand for a year. By #12 we should both be pros at these!


I love the colors in this one and at first glance you don't see that they are Christmas theme fabrics, the colors are non-traditional for the season so I decided not to quilt Christmas designs, I quilted a meandering leafy/swirl and the piano-key border has a ribbon design. Thread of choice is a beautiful shiny variegated "Rainbows" thread from Superior- I haven't used Rainbows for a long time, last use it shredded and broke but that was with my original longarm, the A-1 seems to love it and sewed like a dream


As with most busy backings, the quilting does not show.
