My December UFO candidate for One Monthly Goal is this Circa 2016 quilt top. I was worried about how the parts would all go together, because I had been reading that others were having problems getting it to fit correctly. I must have done something wrong--mine went together perfectly--lol! I did configure the half square triangles differently from the pattern--the consensus at quilt camp was that they should point outward. |
I took this photo a couple days after our 16 inches of snow. The tree that fell on the shed is gone now--and thankfully, so is all that snow.

Friday I went to applique group--lots of fun chatting and yummy treats. I had to share Sandi's little stitchery--so cute!! (A Primitive Gatherings pattern) To Plant a Flower |
It's snowing again today, so I am hoping to finish up the stitching on block 3 of A Primitive Garden. (I'm loving my new Primitive Gatherings mug I snatched up during their Black Friday event--it's usually filled with hot honey and lemon or chocolate tea. I hope you find some time to do some Slow Sunday Stitching today too! |
I thought that black quilt photo in the linkup was yours and I was thinking "good grief when did she fit THAT in" :) Nice to hear that Circa went so well for you!
ReplyDeleteYour Circa 2016 quilt is beautiful! Love it! The wool appliqué quilt is adorable too!
ReplyDeleteThe Circa top is wonderful. I have seen one other put together and like it too. I should have sewn along with the others.
ReplyDeleteThe wool quilt is a good one. A delightful flower garden and words that are oh so true.
Love your Circa 2016 quilt, looks great. Mine is still in pieces, so nice to be inspired, thank you.
ReplyDeleteVery beautiful quilt.I can't imagine sewing all those little pieces and I'm glad it came together well for you.

ReplyDeleteyour friends stitching is lovely too
Very nice. I really like the black borders. I am one who had problems. I did the HST like you did. If you have time check out my journey. Two of your blocks have one of the same issues. I replaced them. Doitrightquilter.wordpress.com. Nanette
ReplyDeleteOMG Your Circa quilt is gorgeous! I love love love it! I laughed out loud at you "doing something wrong" because it went together perfectly!
ReplyDeleteHope you enjoyed slow stitching your garden blocks yesterday!
Thanks for sharing with the Slow Sunday Stitchers!
love that quilt. I considered joining the same QAL but never did. Thanks for linking up with Elm Street Quilts One Monthly Goal.
ReplyDeleteI love your Circa 2016 quilt. Hugs
ReplyDeleteI chuckled at your comment that you must have done something wrong because yours went together perfectly. : )
ReplyDeleteIt is a great looking quilt!
To Plant a Flower has been hanging in a LQS recently. It always catches my eye. And you are making another PG quilt that I love (but will probably never make--so I will enjoy watching yours grow).
Lovely post!
Your Circa 2016 is beautiful! Thank goodness you did something wrong :))))
ReplyDeleteSandi's stitchery is just wonderful too!
My Circa 2016 quilt went together without too much difficulty. I was worried though. I placed my half square triangles facing outwards also. Instead of black, I did red borders.
ReplyDeleteYour quilt is beautiful.
Charlotte
