I decided to end my weather hexies which I had started at the beginning of the year. I wanted to add the overnight low temps to my quilt. So I designed this layout. Each daytime high is going to be a elongated hexie. Then the overnight low will be the regular hexie to the right of the daytime one. I was sewing up a storm until we hit the really high, humid days. I couldn't keep up with the temps. . I am hoping that they will soon become available once again.. Or that I can find them somewhere else. Right now my quilt has a hole in it.
Instead of appliqueing the rosettes to a background fabric like I did before. I decided to outline each week with light colourd hexies. I started with the first day of summer - June 21, 2008. That is the first block you see. I just finished week 5. I'll post more about these blocks later. I am very busy right now, hosting a Japanese teacher for a couple of weeks. I'll be back soon.
I was going to link up with Sarah, but her site wants me to accept her privacy policy and I can't figure out how to do that.

Fun way to do your weather quilt. Enjoy your Japanese visitor.
Clever idea for your hexies. Have fun with your visitor!
I like how you have incorporated the overnight lows. Not that they look very low so far!
Oh my gosh, that is so fun and clever.
