Help me name this quilt - please!
I'm writing up instructions for this quilt and I need a name for it. I've been calling it my red/beige scrap quilt but I need something a little more exciting - any suggestions?

Hi Mary,
I like the red color, how about: "Ruby Slippers: There's No Place Like Home."
The quilt looks like roads rising up, so how about: "May the Road Rise Up to Greet You."
Or, "A Merry Heart is Good Medicine." I love that one because my mom's name is Mary Hart.
Or, "Happy as a Dog with Five Tails."
Or, "Fun and Games."
Or, "Ace in the Hole."
Help! Now I can't stop thinking of names for your quilt!!
I like them all of these names and I may use some when the right quilt comes along, but I don't see why we can't share.
Let me know what you decide to name your quilt. I sure is a pretty one.
P.S. How about "Firing on all Cylinders?" It sure has a lot of energy!
Above, I meant to say "It" sure is a pretty one:)
How about "Red Rover, Red Rover?" It's the first thought that popped into my mind! D~~~~
Reminds me of a "summer picnic".
You know, the blanket you put on the ground.
It's beautiful!
I've been following your site for a while now. I'm taking a quilting class, so I'm just a beginner. But your blog inspires me :) All of your quilts are beautiful!
For some reason the word "diamond" flashed when I saw the photo. So ................
Diamond in the Rough
It kind of reminds me of taffy candy twists. So, Scarlett Taffy? Ruby Twists?
I like your quilt. It reminded me of White and Red Blood Cells. Something that all people need. Just like all the Heartstrings quilts you finish up. But since I a a Diesel Tech Student... I like the other suggestion of Firing on all Cylinders.

mesmerism!
i love that pattern. it would look good in almost any color/neutral combination.
Venetian Blinds
Oh, Mary! How are you ever going to decide now? What a lot of good ideas. Also: Red Carpet, Red Tape, Red Herring, In The Red, Paint the Town Red.
Venetian blinds - that's cool. My sons would say, "What does that mean?" :)
I really like Venetian Blinds!
How's Chesty doing?
i thought diamond instantly when i saw this ..
red diamond
fire diamond
hearth diamonds (home fires etc .. )
i'll stow now before I really get rolling
looks great and love your view!!
hugs

it kinda looks like "Chutes & Ladders" to me. Chutes being the half square triangles and the ladders are the ladders are the 4 patches.
Oh, I really like Venetian Blinds ... VERY cool name! Gets my vote ;-)
Flatlander (Linda)
Starlight Mint.......... it reminds me of the Red and white mints my grandmother always had in a dish in her dining room.
Nancy
I don't know where this came from, but as it loaded on the page, it said "Jiggles" ... besides that's short and easy to print on a label! LOL -- Cute quilt!
Zing-a-ring-ding a Red Fling
Wow Mary, that is so pretty. I can't help with the name though, I'm not all that good at stuff like that!
I love love love that quilt. I would call it "Toffee Apples" the ruby reds reminds me of the sweet apple on a hot day at the fair!
Mary, that's a pretty quilt. Lots of great suggestions for a name, my choice would be "Keep On Dancin'".
It's been a long day! Best wishes, Diane
My first thought was "Scarlet Streamers"
Looks like there are a lot of great suggestions for you already. Licorice & Taffy? It's a terrific quilt whatever you call it. What a lovely view for Chesty. I'm so glad he's back to normal.
How about Candy Cane Square Dance! Definately reminds me of candy canes or stick candy...so second choice would be Stick Candy Picnic!
"Well Red"
Chesty's view is lovely, no wonder he is happy!
I keep thinking about checkerboards.
Love the quilt.
Karen
Nice design ad fabric selections!
"Red Rover, Cross Over"
"Criss Cross"
"Checkers"
"Square dance"
"All A-buzz"
"Busy market place"
Maybe a title based around your inspiration?
My naming would be: peppermint twist.
Good to see Chesty up and enjoying his window.
That beautiful quilt makes me think of Red Licorice.
My name suggestion for the quilt pattern is Sparkling Bows. Thanks for keeping up your blog. It gives me something nice to read every day.
I like Venetian Blinds!
My thought was Red Hots, like those little cinnamon candies. It looks like someone spilled a box! :)
Red October?
The quilt is absolutely stunning! Love it! You are such a great artist!
candy apples- it's gorgeous!
Bowl of cherries
chocolate cherries
Looks like Chesty can't miss a thing from his viewpoint.
Anything but clever...
"Look at those diagonals." (Kinda tells the quilter what he/she is getting into...)
Chesty has a great view!! Lucky boy! The quilt is really nice too. :) As I am only half way through my first cup of coffee my mind is a blank as to what to call it. I do like the first suggestion though.
Have a great day!!

I see you already have a name for it but just wanted to tell you it is drop dead gorgeous!
Call it "Ezerkocka".
In Hungarian meens: Thousand of cubes.
Hugs from Hungary!
Lovely quilt Mary !
I have a very soft spot for red as you know :-)
For some reason, this quilt makes me think about times spent donating blood, so, all of my names revolve around that...
"Donations of Love"
"Donations from the Heart"
"Blood Love"
"Blood Donations"
"Do Your Part, Give Some Heart"
You get the idea. Sorry if this is too morbid for you, it just reminds me of the tubes of blood that are empty, then full of love and life as we do our part and donate from the heart!
Suzy :)
Wow, this is great.
