The end of the first half of 2025 seems like the perfect time for a little update on my temperature quilt. Here are all the blocks through the end of June.
I've done well at keeping up with making my blocks, never getting much more than a week behind. Yesterday I was able to get more groups of blocks joined together. I've been putting blocks together into sets of 16 for the center area of the quilt and smaller groups along the sides. Here's another photo, minus the blocks that haven't been joined together yet.
You may have noticed a couple of blocks that are different shapes than the rest. I need a total of 368 blocks for the layout I'm doing, which meant adding three extras to the total for a regular year. Those extra blocks will represent my husband's birthdate (the circle near the upper right,) our wedding day (the heart near the bottom left,) and my birthdate later in the year.
It has been so much fun to see how this quilt has changed as the year goes along. I know there will be plenty more of the yellows, oranges and reds for these hot summer days in Georgia before we get back into the cooler colors in the fall.
