I just saw a quilt suggestion from a website that used a square for each day. A color was assigned to a mood. Happy, sad, tired, and you added that square each day. It was along the lines of the quilt that had registered the temperature of the day. This was not the site I saw, but has a chart already set up. And I like the idea of a "dresden plate" type design instead of just squares. You could do hexies, bow ties, stars, almost anything. http://daintytime.net/2010/06/16/mod-mood-quilt-1/
I googled mood quilts, and it seems there is a pinterest page also.

Thankyou so much for this, yngldy. It’s exactly the sort of thing I was looking for. I did consider doing a mood journal quilt, but couldn’t work out how - maybe I’ll try this next year! For this year, I’ve gone with temperature, using QuiltnNan’s suggestion of a 9-patch with one solid side, so it has 7 pieces. I wanted to keep it to a block a week rather than a day for this first attempt, so that I know I’ll have time to do it - and won’t end up with a ginormous quilt!
I’ll check out the Pinterest page too.
