Leap Year - Finished

Last year I joined in Another Year of Schnibbles and pieced this Leap Year quilt.


 I quilted it myself with lots of straight lines and am very pleased with how it turned out.


 The fabrics are a mix of Vintage Modern and Ruby by Bonnie and Camille.


 I love spotty bindings, especially in red ... 


and also have an addiction to pictures of rolled up quilts!


Hope everyone is having a fabulous weekend. I have been doing some 'secret sewing' for the rapidly approaching Christmas season.
