I like like your oops best, and I agree the first thing I thought of was the ocean and waves. Storm at sea suits it well.

Sorry, not new at all. Google STORM AT SEA adn check a few sites. You'll find both under the same name.

I'd have to call the "wrong" one pretty! :) In fact, I like it better than the right one lol!

I agree...far more interesting.

I like the correct one. The first one, to me, is too busy. I remember going fishing on Lake Mille Lacs in Minnesota and there would be waves (humongous lake) and one would just rock and fish and rock and fish and it was comforting. That's how the second quilt feels to me - it is comforting, just rocking --

what would I call it? beautiful!

SunlitenSmiles 03-03-2012 04:48 AM

I like the Hurricane Brewing one best (probably misspelled)

paulswalia 03-03-2012 04:58 AM

How about Capsized at Sea? Like others above, I think I like your "wrong" variation even better than the "right" one!

pdolls 03-03-2012 04:59 AM

I would put your way on my bucket list got a pattern

Mona Marie 03-03-2012 05:00 AM

I think the "wrong" one is just an beautiful as the "right" one.

Patski-Mi. 03-03-2012 05:11 AM

I like the wrong one. The center just pops...

Grandma sews 03-03-2012 05:17 AM

I would call it "Riding the Waves." Nice design!!! Love them both.

charlie 1940 03-03-2012 05:19 AM

Double Waves

margee 03-03-2012 05:23 AM

I don't know what I call "the mistake". But I sure can say that I like it a lot & if you make it please post a picture.

2manyhobbies 03-03-2012 05:25 AM

Youknow, I'm voting for #1' too!

coldquilter 03-03-2012 05:29 AM

I totally love the "wrong" one. Think that would make a much neater pattern in a quilt.

roadrunr 03-03-2012 05:32 AM

I see what you did. I really like it, it makes the storm even stormier. However, it also is going to be harder to keep it straight.

linynp 03-03-2012 05:34 AM

Creative artistic differences :)

Silver Needle 03-03-2012 05:35 AM

I think you have good names already posted but I would call the incident "Divine Intervention". Your first version is ver visually appealing. Would you consider sharing the pattern?

joyce j 03-03-2012 05:36 AM

I like the mistake, it really looks like a Storm at Sea joyce j

moreland 03-03-2012 05:36 AM

You could call your "mistake" Stormy Waves!!

Candy Apple Quilts 03-03-2012 05:42 AM

I like the extra yellow in your version. It makes me think of sunlight playing on the water after the storm starts to subside. How about "The Storm is Over" or "The Storm is Ending"? Beautiful!

Pieces2 03-03-2012 05:45 AM

I can see how easy it was to make this error. The correct one is a better pattern. Looks to complicated for me.
Good luck, happy quilting.

veryvirginia 03-03-2012 05:54 AM

I'd call in inspirational!

Grannyh67 03-03-2012 05:55 AM

I also like the mistake, it has motion. Joy

matraina 03-03-2012 05:55 AM

I would call it Quilter's License, like poet's license.

Darlene516 03-03-2012 05:58 AM

I really like the "mistake'. How about "'rough seas ahead"?

athenagwis 03-03-2012 05:59 AM

I love it!! The mistake is my favorite too. Looks like Aurora Borealis (sp?) So pretty!! Wish I could get it as a pattern. :)

Cheers!
Rachel

GrannieLOU 03-03-2012 06:18 AM

How about "Boats in a Row"? Can almost feel the waves - lots of movement there!

elm 03-03-2012 06:24 AM

Call it "Double Trouble"?

faykilgore 03-03-2012 06:34 AM

Thanks for sharing. We printed out the new version for consideration. I like it!

hoppa 03-03-2012 06:37 AM

I like the wrong one and there are no mistakes in art

quiltingranny 03-03-2012 07:04 AM

"Turbulent Storm at Sea" would be a good name for it. I just love your "mistake". It has sooooo much more movement in it. Whatever you name it.....I'm bookmarking it!

gypsylady5 03-03-2012 07:06 AM

I like the variation a lot as well. Sortof makes the second one boring!

Mazda 03-03-2012 07:06 AM

I am with the others, I like the wrong one!

jeaninmaine 03-03-2012 07:07 AM

How about "Stormy Echoes"

I agree. I'd make that one!

Bamagal 03-03-2012 07:15 AM

Whoa!!! I really like the wrong one!! 👍

DianneK 03-03-2012 07:19 AM

Call it "High Tide" much more movement than the 'storm"
