How to make a temperature quilt – document a year in fabric

Category

Making a temperature quilt is a fun and creative way to document an entire year of weather in a specific location! This unique project uses 365 squares, with each square representing a day of the year, and reads like a book – from top to bottom, left to right. By assigning colors, prints, or patterns to temperature ranges, you can turn weather data into a stunning visual timeline. Get creative with your design! Use raindrop prints for rainy days, snowflake prints for snowy days, and holiday-themed fabrics to mark special dates. Separate months with plain white squares to make the quilt easier to “read.” Whether you use scraps, solids, or a mix, your quilt becomes a vibrant, one-of-a-kind record of the year. For added convenience, look up past temperatures online to sew an entire year in one go – no waiting required!
