Moose in the Window ... needing new name
 
1 Attachment(s)
Here's the wall hanging I just finished as a housewarming gift for DD & family who live in Anchorage. I'd like to give it a new name, and I thought this would be the best place to get suggestions. My ideas are "Moose in the Hoose"/"Moose is Loose". The name doesn't have to rhyme. Those are just the ones that came to my mind.

I used a printed panel rather than doing the applique background which the pattern called for. I'm not using the "c" word. :)

What a cute moose. I really like this. This is pretty boring for a name but it's the first thing I thought of when I saw it. "Hello There" or "Hi Neighbors".

How cute is that!!!!!!!!!!!!! I love everything about it! Your panel just adds to it all! Well done!

Great quilt ... I really like how you have mixed the photographic background with the whimsy of the moose!

I got the panel at my LQS some time ago. I didn't save any of the leftovers so can't check the selvage.
Not too helpful. Sorry.

I think it's a Robert Kaufman Nature Series, you can find one here

As soon as I saw the picture I said "HI There". It could also be "Mr. Moose"

Auntie V 04-20-2014 07:25 PM

Anybody home?

lovingmama 04-21-2014 06:19 AM

I'm the Moose,
that's on the loose.

Just checkin' in,
maybe there's a cookie in the bin.

I'm ready, on the go,
but not without a sweet "Hello!"

tessagin 04-21-2014 06:29 AM

I immediately thought of the cartoons Rocky and Bullwinkle. "Here's Bullwinkle at cha!"

pal 04-21-2014 07:17 AM

"I thought I saw a Puddy Cat...." Great Job! Excellent idea re: background

MarleneC 04-21-2014 07:45 AM

I loved seeing the previous picture of the moose and found a quilt shop in this area had the kit already made up for it -- the kit included the binding and backing fabrics as well as the buttons. I am not sure I will use all the fabric that was included as we all want our creations to be somewhat unique in our own choices. Using the panel is quicker and it sure works. A woman in another shop that I showed the pattern too loves moose also and she wanted to get the kit. The shops here don't carry just the pattern.

Moose really aren't this cute and when they leave large footprints in your grass and eat on your flowerbed as well as leaving moose pellet wherever they go they are a real pest and it helps having a cute picture like this to look at.
