Design Wall Monday 1/20/2025

It has been quite awhile since I joined the Design Wall Monday posts. There has been plenty of quilting happening, but I've fallen behind with photos and blogging. It's time to rejoin the Monday link-ups!


My design wall currently contains pieces for two very different quilts. The upper part has 5" flannel squares from a kit I received at our recent guild meeting to turn into a baby quilt. The lower portion shows all the blocks completed so far for my 2025 Temperature Quilt.


The new committee head for the guild's Community Service projects discovered several precut kits for baby quilts in the guild's stash, and I agreed to take this kit and finish the quilt. The two pieces along the right side are each about a yard long. I'm thinking about using them as shown, with a small border of the light blue solid and a wider border of the dots. The remainders of those two fabrics would be combined for the quilt back. I'm hoping to end up with a quilt that measures about 35" square.


I've been doing well at keeping up with the blocks for the Temperature Quilt so far this year. They are very easy to cut and piece, and it is fun to see the color changes. I'll be adding some new colors (more purples) this week because of the colder temperatures we are getting. You can read more about this quilt and see my whole range of fabrics in this post.

    Nice to get a cute quilt together from the kit. I love all the bright, fun fabrics. I bet a lot of folks doing temperature quilts need to add to the colors representing the colder days. I can remember a big snow storm hitting Atlanta many years ago when we lived there. No one seemed to know what to do! But the kids enjoyed playing in the snow.

    Your temperature blocks are such an interesting shape. Are they paper-pieced? The baby quilt will be a quick and satifsying project.

    Those temperature blocks are really fun. The baby quilt will be really cute when it's all finished. Stay warm and stitch on!
