I was thinking the same thing as zyxquilts. You could alternate some simpler blocks with those beautiful blocks that you have done. Either way, it will be appreciated and it is a real beauty.

I like Rescue in Red.

Thank you all for all your great comments and suggestions. Had to stoke the fire and couldn't go back to sleep so at 2am I was cutting more material for more squares :roll: Looking at the white it looked like snow hitting a window, thought of Snow Fire. So many decisions :D

Have to have this done by the middle of next month. Four squares make one block and I need nine blocks. Had wanted to make it larger, not now! This represents 2 days of cutting and sewing, hope I can make it in time :D Also need to come up with a name for it. Last 2 were "Dawn's Fire and Ice" - Blue and white with some red prairie points inserted. Then did "Hearts 'O Fire" - Red, pink and white with a couple of red wonky hearts appliquaed.
How about "hook and ladder"
