Quilting Updates

So I was away on vacation for most of August hence the lack of posts, but I'm back now and revving up my sewing room again.

What's on the agenda:

• I decided to add another row to my August Stars quilt, so what was a Baby size will now be a Youth size. This is tricky for two reasons. Y seams will be involved in expanding the width of the quilt, and I am using some different fabrics. I picked the project as a  "use up" project and I did indeed use up the fabrics I picked out for it. So the additions may look like additions. We'll see.
• After that, I want to finish piecing my Summer Reading quilt. Which will be done after summer and after the person whose birthday I was making it for. But that's the way it goes.
• In between I need to work on some test blocks I told a friend I would do. She designed some horse paper pieced blocks and I need to get to work on testing them.

Of course that's not even a little bit of what I have sitting around to complete. 

But I did finally mail off a package of fabric to the Navajo Quilt Project, which French General started to help support indigenous communities. I've been wanting to do this for a while and I'm sure it will be the first of a series of ongoing donations as I continue to clear things out over time. I already have a second bag that I'm planning to pack of my wool felt stash.

That's it for me. What are you up to as the month comes to a close?
