I wasn't sure I would get a chance to get Circa 2016 quilted during such a busy month, but the stars aligned, and I finally got a chance to finish up the quilting.

| I forgot about getting outside to take a photo until the sun was so low in the sky causing a shadow from the power pole across the street. It would have been better to do my pictures in the morning, but I totally blanked it out. I also forgot to brush off the chalk line for the feathered border--yeesh! Apparently, the little gray cells aren't in tip-top shape--time to start doing those brain games again. |
 |
| At the same time, it didn't help that those icicles were dripping on my head and freezing into my hair while pinning up the quilt. It makes me wish I had nice lighting inside the house for photos--lol! |
 |
| I got to use up some big chunks of fabric for the back--always a good thing! |
 |
| This shot is in the shade--much better--and no icicles! Circa 2016 was my One Monthly Goal selection--I'm linking up HEREand Circa 2016 was also on my Fourth Quarter Finish Along List HERE |
I have already told one blogger that made this quilt that it could come live at my house any time. I will tell you the same. Love it! Scrappy good and my kind of colors and fabrics.
