I have to go back and look up my rounds. Someone was kind enough to send along a piece of fabric, the red w/ gold metallic, that I then used for the binding.

Turnaround time for the quilting AND binding is amazing... I just took a quilt in to be done at LQS and won't get it back until the New Year. Candlequilter was less than two weeks! I asked for something Christmassy & she sent me pictures of some pantos she had; I chose holly w/ berries. She used a gold on the top and an off-white in the bobbin. Love it!!
