2 (1 qt.) jars kosher dill quarters
2 c. sugar
1/3 c. plus 2 tbsp. water
2/3 c. plus 3 tbsp. vinegar

Remove the pickle quarters from the jars. Discard the liquid. Rinse the pickles with cold water and drain well. Pack the pickles back into the jars. Mix the sugar, water and vinegar in a saucepan and boil a few minutes. Cool the mixture slightly and pour carefully over the pickles.

Let the pickles set for 2 days, turning over now and then, or laying the jars on their sides for a while. Keep refrigerated.
