It was a lot more efficient than my mother, running through all her kids and brothers names while yelling at you, trying to determine which was yours.

I have one WIP that I have already named. My brother Matthew is an artist. And when I agreed to make him a quilt, he sent me a box of different things- patches from all over the world, the inside pockets to boy scout uniform pants, silks, canvas, parts of old shirts, etc. Which I am slowly working together into a kind of stew.
Because of an inside family joke, it is called "Conversation between the Turnip Children".
Other than that, the name is just whoever is the recipient: Elise's Quilt, Kenyon's Quilt, Jim's Quilt, etc.
