What's in a name?

07-08-2010, 12:56 AM

A few friends have asked me what I plan to name my 2009 TQS BOM quilt. I haven't made my final decision yet, but do have a very short list of ideas floating around in my mind. Now, I'm curious "What will each of you name your 2009 TQS BOM quilt?".

I just love looking at all of these finished quilts in "Show & Tell" and seeing how beautiful this quilt design is in all of the diverse color and fabric combinations.

Margo,

Thanks! I've been anxiously awaiting a photo of your completed quilt. This teaser photo shows that your backing is beautiful, too. I love the vintage/antique look of your backing fabric. Let us know when you've posted a full photo onto "Show & Tell".

After months of searching for the perfect backing fabric, I finally found and bought it yesterday. My quilt will be professionally machine quilted, because I don't machine quilt well and my handquilting would probably not do it justice.

Thanks, Nancy! If you remember, I showed photos of the backing fabric when we first started this BOM. I used it to choose the colors that I used for my piecing. Here is one of the photos from my Webshots album:

(Clicking on the photo will take you to Webshots)

And here is a link to my Member Blog where I shared photos of my quilting:

community/my-profile/Margo

I'll add some photos to the Show & Tell page. Thanks for reminding me!

My quilt's name will be "Autumn Star." I'm about half finished hand quilting it. Gotta get it finished for my guild's show in October.

Mine will be called "Uh Oh" because my flying geese are crashing into each other in the borders and 1 of the blocks is made wrong. I did enjoy making this quilt though. learnt many new techniques.

I love your name "Uh Oh". That would have been an appropriate name for mine too.
