Christmas quilt and sham by Shannon

 No pressure here, but this is the first quilt that Shannon has had someone else do her quilting for her.  She usually quilts her own on her domestic sewing machine, but this was just a little too big for her to cope with.
 Lovely Christmas prints in traditional red and green, and a modified Drunkards Path pattern without the curved piecing.  Good thinking! 
 Quilted with "Alabaster" thread on top and a sage green in the bobbin.  Difficult to tell in this photos, but the backing is actually a natural muslin color, so the green thread really shows up.  The pattern is called "Tannenbaum".  Perfect on this quilt because the trees go both up and down, so no "right side up".  I hope that Shannon will bring me more quilts in the future, this was really fun to do.  Many compliments on it while it was still on my machine and other customers would come to drop off their quilts.
