My first car was my 1951 Ford Sedan that I still have, and I collect a lot of 40's, 50's memorabilia and my family lives by the values and morals that we had back then. Even my house was built in 1951.

What a sweet way to honor your DD!

My husband has always called me his lovebug (bug for short), and since I love to sew, it's sew n bug.

Mine is pretty easy to see....I LOVE growing roses. I worked at a landscape nursery and after it became evident that I knew alot about roses...my coworkers gave me that name.

As I continue reading all the posts on this thread, I can't tell you how much I appreciate learning more about the different facets of the lives of quilters and how they become identity. Wouldn't it be fun to make quilt squares that represent your name?

I think this is a great idea!!!

You're on to a great idea here! We'd need to make it by states or regions, because of the size. Think of all of the states/countries displaying at a national Quilt Board conference. Work out some details with admin. I'm in.

Wow. I'm not even sure how we'd do this! Didn't even think of Quilt Board conferences -- you're way ahead of me on this one. HELP!!!
