And I changed my mind once again. Luckily only have to redo January and a few days of February.
I'm making 3 small-ish wall size quilts: 1) Daily Highs, 2) Daily Lows, 3) Daily Precipitation. For my precipitation quilt I am using solids and the same solid color for each day within each defined precipitation range. My Plan C for the daily temperature quilts was to use all scrappy fabrics - in fact I was even going for no duplicates.
I love the precipitation quilt because it tells the story of the precipitation change very well. Something was bugging me about the temperature quilts and I finally decided it is the scrappiness. I'm too busy looking at all of the different fabrics to "see" the colors therefore the story of the temperature change is being lost.
So...Plan D: hunt through stash for solids that I can use for the temperature quilts and re-do them.
