Hi, Teresa, what adorable gem blocks! Looking forward to seeing your quilt. I responded to your question on my blog about my temperature quilt, as it was anonymous and I could not discern your email address and I will also reply here. Yes, I have continued to work on the blocks for this quilt, although I have not sewn the blocks together. I am planning one large rectangular quilt with a layout of about 18 blocks across and 20 blacks down. I am planning spacer blocks between the months, like trees or flowers, a cat, etc. Because my blocks will finish at 4" by 5," my quilt will be longer than it is wide. The approximate dimensions are 80" across and 100" down. I have a long arm that will accommodate this size of quilt. I will probably not be finishing this quilt for many more months. I hope this help you plan your own temperature quilt. There are very many nice temperature quilt ideas in the wonderful online quilting world. If I do it again I would likely choose a flying geese or square in a square design. Happy sewing ... :) Pat
These blocks look fantastic.
ReplyDeleteVal's designs are so sweet, and you're doing a lovely job of creating them.
