Welcome to Day 10 of the Fabadashery Longarm Quilting Twelve Days of Christmas.  Today I am sharing Pat's Gingko Quilt.  This was a very large quilt, using a Stuart Hillard pattern and a wide range of Kona Bay Ginkgo Tonal fabrics.  These particular fabrics have a metallic finish to them and I used a Glide Prickly Pear thread, which magically seems to have a similar finish to it - it looks beautiful on the black fabric.

Pat had pieced the back as well and it was here that you could really see the pattern of the 'Dragon Wings', a design by Apricot Moon.  With a large pieced front and pieced back, Pat opted for a 100% Wool wadding to make the quilt as light as possible.
