Help naming quilt paper pieced with no pattern name
 
Just needing to attach a couple more rows then appliqué the edges to a border. I would like a name that is "English" to reflect the paper piecing or is old fashion / antique sounding. Colors don't show so well here but they are funky greens and citrons, brown tan and black. Many thanks!!

That's very pretty, I like that "Cane pattern" fabric.

It is gorgeous. Love the colors. I love the "funky" green and the Citron.

Lovely quilt. I'd call it "Hidden Gems"....

It reminds me of mosaics, parquet or marquetry floors. Maybe English Marquetry?

It is really neat and not the ordinary quilts so many of us make.

Gorgeous blocks - English Garden comes to me. Was the fabric fussy cut or did you piece all the centers?

Not sure I understand. They are both fussy cut then pieced. All 1537 pieces ;)

I would call this Windsor Castle. I think the colors look like beautiful stone work. It is beautiful and grand a style of kings and queens.
peace

Lots of suggestions already... so I will just say......What a really pretty quilt!

I see English Wallpaper or English Kitchen to me. Maybe English Pantry.

What an absolutely beautiful quilt. If you want to have an English theme (which I think is a really nice idea), check out Renishaw Hall, which is the family home of the famous Sitwells. Scroll through the pictures on the following link - I think your quilt would be perfectly at home in this stately manor, the interior and gardens match the quilt perfectly.

Thank you for the link! What a wonderful place this would be to visit!
