Fading Temps


(affiliate links to my designs)

Digital temperature quilt projects have become more of a time hog and less of a fun project the last few months, so I'm thrilled when another one is finished. My batik quilt panel representing the second half of 2024 moved to the finished column this week, and I'm so glad!

I haven't tried putting the two panels together yet to see how they'd look, but the color scheme is growing on me. Initially, I did not like my rainbow temperature scale because I don't really care for the red, orange and yellow, but also because I picked colors I don't like to use as much to reprsent the hot temperatures, which I also don't like. And yet, holy moly! Didn't the premature quadrupled full shortened year panel make the coolest tea towel?!?

Bring on winter snow!!!

I still have five more digital projects to finish, and I really love three of them. Yet all have become drudgery, not only because we had identical highs and lows for long consecutive strings of days this year, which is not typical where I live, but also because life really got in the way this year. We're just a few days away from finishing up the year, and I'm not going to make a decision on creating a 2024 temperature quilt, real fiber or digital, until the end of the month. Or maybe I'll take a week off and start in January and play catch-up. Ha ha ha! I feel like that's what I've been doing most of this year!
