I really like the precipitation band added. I need to do some more snow dyeing as I started with a 4 inch hexy that is wanting to fussy cut. My bolt of ready to dye white is too dense for hand quilting (my favorite) and I'm glad it is only one patch a day to hand sew in. Maybe I can use it all up on this project. Will try to post a picture when the second round begins.

To add a picture...[ATTACH=CONFIG]565234[/ATTACH] Opps...that is the 365 from 2016.
[ATTACH=CONFIG]565235[/ATTACH]This is the first 7 days of the Temperature 2017. It starts with the pinned patch and goes counter clockwise. The next row starts with the smaller turquoise solid block and will also go counter clockwise. So far have used the yellow for 30, blue-green for 40. The strange purple yellow was for the day the dial was stuck between 20 and thirty. The rows will alternate between snow dyed and solids.

I have five days done. My struggle is that I keep changing my mind on what to do. I need to come up with a plan and stick with it. The one plan I have stuck with is to use only material I already have.

On another site, I belong to a stash busting group-I haven't met my annual goal for the last two years, but it has slowed down my buying a bit. I remember reading back in the 70s that there are no ugly quilts...and if there were they would still keep you warm.

You ladies have tempted me into figuring out a small block, a block layout, and a final quilt layout for IF I were going to do this ................................. no, I must resist, still have hundreds of small mystery quilt units to make and assemble!!!!! But such a waste of time if I don't make it ............................ no, you have the upcoming Boom swap blocks to make. But it would be such a unique way to use up some scraps ............................. no you have a whole bin of blocks that need to be made into quilts. (I hope you guys read that in the voices of Smegal and Gollum)

I spent most of yesterday rethinking the colors for temps after I discovered that I didn't have any light violets or light purples in my stash. Then I cut out colored triangles for the high and low for Jan.1-7 and stitched each to a black triangle, so I now have 14 squares done.

Well, I sure like this idea for a quilt but I'm still on the fence and haven't decided if I want to make one. How will you who are making this quilt tell the year of the temperatures? (on a back label....somewhere on the front...?)

I think I plan on adding the year and details on what temperatures my colors represent on the back of my quilt.
