03. My Design Temperature Chart 2025

 


My Design of a Temperature Chart for 2025
Stitched on 14 count Aida banding.

Each square represents one hour of the day.
Each column represents one day of the year.
For the nightime hours I used the lowest temperature and for the daytime hours I used the highest.
The length of the days and nights varies as the sun sets and rises at different times throughout the year.


I noted the start of British Summer Time when the clocks Spring Forward an hour.











And also the return to Greenwich Mean Time when the clocks Fall Back by an hour.

02. Just Nan Witching Hour Cube

 


Just Nan Witching Hour Cube
Stitched on 32 count purple linen




After I finished stitching the cube, I made a card form to go inside.
I stitched the four vertical sides together, inserted the card form then filled it with stuffing.  I added a heavy bolt to weight it down then stitched the bottom shut.

I added backstitch to the hens so they would show up better on the fabric.
