But first (as always, post-irrigation) I felt pressured to do some weeding.  As a result the trash can is now almost half full, so I felt justified in taking a break to do something else for a bit.  With cooler temps these days the ground should stay saturated enough to enable me do more through tomorrow (at least.)

Happy to have made progress on the book quilt!

My next step was to do some sashing math:

Now I almost have both the top and bottom rows assembled; just need to lay out and (probably) trim the 'extra' 1/4 inch from center sashing. But by the time I'd gotten that far it was 5:00, and I decided to wait to do that in the morning when I’m fresh.
