Dubious UFOs Finale

I've finally finished sorting through and laundering the fabric and UFOs in my gifted bin. Aside from the green velvet wrap and the purple patchwork block sets, this is everything. Lots of scraps and fat quarters, with a few larger pieces. Most of it is fifteen to twenty years old, but in new condition.

I have a better handle now on why I put all these in one bin, too. Most of it is print fabric, and/or in red, dark or crayon colors that I now don't often use for quilts or textile art. I've gravitated more toward lighter colors and hand-dyed fabrics. That doesn't make the fabric unusable, of course, and it's good for me to work outside my comfort zone. There are some pieces that are quite pretty, too.

I still can't figure out who gave me the ancient Egyptian print, though. Mom, was this from you? Ha.
