| Circa 2016 blocks |
In January I started a mystery quiltalong hosted by Temecula quilts. Every Friday a new block pattern was posted on their blog and eventually this pile of blocks was created. It's magical the way a pile of fabric scraps can become a pile of carefully constructed blocks.
And even more magical, is when that pile of blocks becomes a quilt top!
But what is even almost miraculous, is when that quilt is finished within the same year in which it was started!
And here is the finished miracle quilt hanging on my friend's clothesline.
Finished size: 41.25" x 49.25"
There wasn't an official link up to see other finished quilts, so here are some that I have found in blogland:
Deanna, Karen, Randy (with an hourglass border instead of the HST) and Joanne (her Circa 2016 grew into a huge quilt). If you know of others, leave a link in the comments and I'll add them.
Thank you again to Temecula for all the fun this year in making this scrappy quilt ... I just love it! The pattern can be purchased here.

Congratulations on getting Circa to a flimsy (mines in a box for next year). And thank you for sharing the links to others - oh my Joanne's large Circa was amazing!

ReplyDeleteYou are well ahead of schedule...your "2106 done in 2016" haha!!!
ReplyDeleteYou have two Deanna's following your blog...great but I am the northern blog stalker!!! Great finish too!!
It turned out great!
ReplyDeleteRound of applause, Kathy! It's a wonderful quilt, and inspires us to get it done!
ReplyDeleteKudos to you, Kathy, for staying with it and wrapping it up in the very same year. I can understand why you call it a miracle quilt! It is a beautiful quilt, too!
ReplyDeleteThat turned out fabulous!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the shout out Kathy! It is a kind of a miracle that we started and finished in the same year--that doesn't happen too often--lol! I have my top on my HQ16 and have been working on it when I have time, so I may actually completely complete Circa 2016 by the end of the year--that really would be a miracle!
ReplyDeleteMine will most likely be a finish in 2017. I have a grandbaby Quilt to get ready for her Delivery 28 December. #7 Granddaughter is scheduled to arrive!
ReplyDeleteI love how yours looks hanging there.
Well done. Do you have a similar project set up for 2017?
ReplyDeleteYour quilt turned out beautifully!!
ReplyDeleteNow that is a quilt that could come live at my house. I am wishing I had made the blocks.
ReplyDeleteCongrats on a gorgeous finish!
