Seasonal Temperature Quilt

This month is just speeding by so fast.  Friday was my Granny's Christmas Party with the 12 grandkids - was so much fun.  Even had a surprise visit from Santa!  They got some Rudolph noses in their goodie bags as well.  Nice of them to humor me and pose for pictures, although for a couple is was a real struggle.

 

This morning I began my Seasonal Temperature Quilt here after known at STQ.  I decided to do mine based on the seasons rather than months.  Its going to be rail fence quilt, with each block having 4 strips - two seasonal strips, one low temp strip and one high temp strip.  Here is my first block along with the Winter banner block.  The orange is the high (50 degrees) and the dark grey is the low (32 degrees) for yesterday, Dec. 21

I drew this out in EQ just to get an idea of how it might look and to also determine what size the banner block should be in order to get a good size quilt.    I am making 4" rail fence block and the finished quilt size will be 70" x 90".

Got this picture this morning from my daughter of Titus with his Rudolph nose....seems he likes it so much he refuses to take it off, except to bathe and sleep.  Wonder if it will be hit at church today?  I gave him his big boy quilt yesterday but wouldn't you know, I forgot to get a picture of that.  Will have to post another time.

Merry Christmas to you all.
