I made a few Sawtooth Stars yesterday,and it was fun, so it looks like the Annette Gero Star quilt is underway.

I have some very odd stripes and repro fabrics that don't lend themselves to cutting into bitty pieces, so they will find a use here. I'm not going to be strict about using fabric only once, but I am going to scour the cupboards tracking down all those weird pieces. It would be a shame not to use them with all the others.

I'm pressing the stars like this. I hate turning up the point of the geese unit, it tend to blunt even perfect points, so I'm hoping this will help everything look crisp. I'm getting fussier as I age.

Just for fun I've started mucking around with a new projects. Flourishing Palms blog had instructions for a strip quilt using 1.5" strips, encircling a centre strip. She has complete instructions here Filmstrip quilt

I don't have strips of modern fabric that narrow, but when I cut up those FQs I will definitely cut strips for this.  It will make a nice baby quilt one  day.

So 2 new projects are underway, but I did terminate 3 projects. I sold these blocks on Facebook recently; I had no interest in seeing them to completion.

Box Kite, another Bonny Hunter block. Fun to make, but 68 was enough

Scrap Bear Paw. I loved making these, and they obligingly used up a heap of charm squares, but I didn't need to put them together. It's quite tiring for me to wrangle a whole quilt these days, and other people are thrilled to get blocks like this for a quick finish.

and some blue/green/aqua blocks. I have more of these cut out, but a lady made a special request, so these are off to make her happy, and I will fill the project box up with more of them.

So I've been busy, even if there's not a lot to show for it.
