Hi First name / Quilty Friend,
 
Happy New Year!

Temperature Quilts

A few years ago, I saw a quilt hanging in the Metropolitan Patchwork Society Outdoor Quilt Show - that really captured my attention. The maker, Christie Frey explained to me that it was a Temperature Quilt.
 
When I first saw Christie's quilt - I had never heard of a Temperature Quilt. I'm not sure I had ever seen one before - or if I had I didn't realize what I was looking at. I was wowed - and went on a search to learn more about Temperature Quilts. I've learned - a lot!
 
 
Quiltblox Birthday Club

It's my birthday month, and in our house - we celebrate birthdays for a whole month. We schedule lots of fun moments for the entire month. 
 
So far, we've spent an evening having dinner while listening to live music at Papa Hydn's and taken a drive to the coast. There may have been a fabric purchase at Homespun Quilts in Astoria. The month is still young - so many more ways to celebrate.  While I'm thinking about my birthday - I thought it would be a great time to get you ready to celebrate yours.

I hope you have some fun projects in the works! I'm working on some new pattern ideas and still making (slow, so very slow) progress on my EPP project). Until next time …
 
Happy Stitching!
