Definitely not in U.K., or it would all be blue.

That's such a good idea! I live in Vermont so the white would have to be snow. One year, I knit a weather scarf and had a lot of fun. Maybe I'll do a quilt in 2019! thanks!

What a wonderful way to preserve the weather for a full year.

I lived in Nashville, TN for 12 years. If I had made one there, it would have been solid blue.

Beautiful and unique! Makes me want to create one! I might like to add yellow for full sun days.

I really like the concept of it. Didn't someone else make one similar to this last year which was also based on weather? I'm going to have to try to look that up. Great job and idea!

I thought you got more rain this winter, Ruth! And in the Pacific Northwest, we would have to set the levels higher to keep from being mostly dark! Maybe use blue and yellow prints for days with both sun and and shower?

Your quilt is so interesting! I was thinking what Houston's would look like, especially with the massive rainfall from Hurricane Harvey.

That's so neat! Did you put a label on the back explaining it for posterity? Will you be making them for several years in a row for comparison?
