Thank you all so much for the nice comments on my King George quilt. I so appreciate it when you take the time. Rich, the cats and coco and I have been enjoying it with the cooler weather here in CT.
So what's next? One thing I've been looking at are these beautiful blocks that were made by my very dear friend, Jill Reid, before she passed away last spring. Our friend, Susan, gave them to me to finish.

This was the last project on Jill's design wall. The block is called "Wheel of Fortune".

Susan and I don't know much about this quilt, or what Jill intended. Susan also found these large pieces of coordinating fabrics.

Here is the block that Jill drafted and colored. It makes me so sad every time I look at her notes.

#2 - Tumbler Jack 'O Lantern tumbler top I made last year.

#3 - A set of 30's/40's Sunbonnet Sue blocks and pink fabrics. The blocks are old and some have some staining, but they are cute and well done with button hole stitching.

#4 - Jo Morton workshop piece. about 36" square. Machine appiqued. Comes with a little fabric.

#5 - a non-UFO giveaway. These are fabrics that were left over from my King George quilt and a brand new spool of Aurifil brown #50 weight thread that I didn't need.

Quite by accident I found this quilt with the block in it. I had never seen this block before.
So I'll have to see how things turn out with this inherited UFO. It's a special project near to my heart.
