Temperature Quilt-Along June 2025: More colors and halftime raffle

Hello everyone! We have already passed June of the Temperature Quilt-Along! In Germany, summer is fast approaching. The landscape is covered in lush green and the weather is getting a bit crazy. This early summer time of year is beautiful. The days are currently the longest with an average of 16.5 hours of light.

The first temperature peaks already occurred in June. Maybe it will be warmer than planned for some of you after all. Andrea has received a lot of emails from you about this in the last few days. Andrea and I have therefore selected 3 more Kona fabrics for you:

Last Sunday, the German Weather Service measured the highest temperature in Germany this year. 36.2 degrees. In Switzerland, the annual high was 34.9 degrees, measured in Visp in beautiful Valais. This means that we are still in line with our forecast. The temperatures are measured in the shade.

For those who measure or expect higher temperatures, we recommend the following additional colors:

Burgundy +37°c/+38°C/+39°C

Brown +40°C/+41°C/+42°C

Coffee +43°C/+44°C/+45°C

With these darker colors following the deep red fabrics, you should be well covered during the very warm days with temperature peaks.

If you live in Switzerland, Austria or Germany, you have the opportunity to order fabric from Andrea at Quiltmanufaktur. Reminder for our international friends: You can often find the Kona fabrics at a shop close to you, since they are often used for quilts. Go check with the store you bought your fabrics at the beginning of the year!
