What a fun thread! I love coming up with fun names for my quilts. It's a different kind of creativity. My favorite is Aino Kisuna which means bonds of love or ties of love in Japanese according to a co-worker who helped me name it. The quilt was made for my husband who fell in love with a black background Asian print that had ribbons in the print.

I never have named any of my quilts in over 25 years of quilting. But then there are a lot of things with quilting I have never done! White glue is the first thing that pops in my mind!!

I don't 'name' my quilts, but I do give them titles as many artists do with their work. Inspiration for the title usually comes as part of the design process for me, and they often have some hidden meaning or double entendre.

Some wonderful and interesting answers! I too like to give a bit of information abut myself just in case someone in future years wants to know about me. That is why my labels are 6 x 9 inches! I practically tell my life story on them.
