Default Fortuitous George ufo done!

This was a class I took that I really enjoyed - I screwed up the order when sewing the blocks. Of course I had all the blocks sewn before realizing this. My top looked completely different because of this.
But, I was pleased with how it turned out so I called it "Fortuitous George" - the class was called "Georgetown Squares".
Finished the binding while watching movies with family yesterday.
The colours are more rust/avocado than the picture shows.

Whatever you "done wrong", you done good.

It does look good. I like it a lot! It's always great when a 'mistake' turns out ok!

Well, whatever the "mistake " was it definitely worked out. I like it and can visualize this is many different looks based on fabric choices. Thanks for sharing.

I like the quilt - it doesn't matter if it is not like the pattern as long as you like the result. It is now decidedly "your" quilt; you can always make another that is like the pattern if you really want to.

Really love the fabric. Even if it wasn't put together correctly, it looks like a pattern and is well made. Congrats!
