    It's for my mother's 80th birthday. I need help with a name for it and thought I'd turn to you clever gals. To me the pattern looks like a package so it fits with the birthday present idea, and she has a green thumb and has always grown flowers wherever we've lived plus this color scheme is one she has in her living room so it reminds me of her (and red is her favorite color). She always used to tell me wen I was young that red and brown go together but back then I didn't think so. I proved to myself with this quilt that she is right (and I'm old enough now not to care that she is right). But even with knowing all this I still can't come up with a good name. Help me please.

    "Forever Flowers for Mother" is my choice.

    "Presents In The Window" is my DH choice.

    Right is Right? Red is Right? Garden of Red? I do like NatalieF's suggestion: Flower Boxes

    My thought: All Wrapped Up in Red.

    Beautiful quilt and what a great present!

    haha, you went from not having a name to having a plethora of names...I'm not sure it's going to be any easier to pick one, there are so many great ones!

    I had a second idea you might like. Elvis Presley's first ever recording was a song called "Mama liked the Roses". You could find her a copy of the song to give her with the quilt. It is a beautiful song he wrote just for his mother. Here is a link if you have never heard it.

    First I had no ideas now I have so many to choose from. Thank you all so much! I like several. I'll let you know what I end up choosing ok?

    I even got a song... Lovely by the way! That was his Elvis' first? I didn't know that.

    I might have have to draw from a hat, they are all so good. I appreciate you guys!!!
