My baby quilt has been put aside for the moment because I've got many, many inches of binding to sew this week.My (huge) maple leaf quilt is back from the quilter, and it's gorgeous! There's no sneak peak of it quilted today (Sorry, I forgot my camera) but it turned out even better than I hoped!
The wedding is fast approaching now and I need to come up with a name for it, post haste. So I'm going to host a little challenge...
The winner will receive a 20$ gift certificate to Hawthorne Threads! Anyone can win, near or far, and I'll pick a winner this weekend.
In order to be eligible to win please leave me a name suggestion in your comment (and an email address if you are a no-reply blogger). Thanks!

Thanks so much!
Very pretty quilt! I'm sure they will be thrilled to receive it. I share your pain about naming quilts--it's hard! The leaf blocks kind of remind me of a compass, so how about something like Maple Rose (like a compass rose)? Of course, maple leaves also remind me of maple sugar candy (yum), so how about Maple Candy? Whatever you name it, it's a great quilt! Nice work!
ReplyDeleteThat is a beautiful quilt! How about Autumn Nuptuals for a name?

Oh it's gorgeous! Hmm...maybe something like Maple Trail or Autumn Trails? It reminds me of pathways and hiking in the fall!
ReplyDeleteFor some reason I thought of wedding ring when I saw it so how about Ring of Leaves. It's very pretty!
ReplyDeleteI love your quilt. Maples have always been a favorite of mine. I'd go with "Autumn Splendor." Beautiful job!
ReplyDeleteThe quilt is gorgeous Autumn+ Leaves, it can be call "Welcoming Autumn" I like the name "Autumn Nuptuals" that someone said on the comments before me :)
ReplyDeleteGorgeous Quilt!!! Love the previous name choices too...allll are great. Hard to name for sure. I Love Fall (our Anniversary is in Oct!) If it was mine, would call it "Autumn Blessings",
ReplyDeleteHow about "Falling for You" or "I'd Fall for You All Over Again".
ReplyDeleteOr what about "Every Leaf Speaks Bliss To Me" from the poem "Fall, leaves, fall" by Emily Bronte.
ReplyDeleteHow about "Sugar Maple" -- It reminds me of x and o 's, or hugs and kisses, thus the "sugar" :) sarah@forrussia.org
ReplyDeleteWhat a beautiful quilt for a fall wedding! I see the hugs and kisses in this quilt, so I would call it - Fallin' in Love. Thanks for the giveaway.
ReplyDeleteI would think of something like Maple Love, or Autumn Love...
ReplyDeleteFestive Foliage? It's a beautiful quilt!
ReplyDeleteAutumn Serenity comes to mind.
ReplyDeleteLeaves from Heaven is the first thing that popped in my mind. Beautiful quilt.
ReplyDeleteNo name suggestion - the ones already here are so good I can't better them, and I always struggle with names - but just wanted to say it's looking great - can't wait till you post the pics with it quilted.
ReplyDeleteI am terrible at naming stuff...The quilt looks fabulous!
ReplyDeleteFabulous Fall of Fabulous Fall Friends -- best friends becoming a married couple.
ReplyDeleteI can't think of anything that tops what's already here. My favourite is Falling for You, though.
ReplyDeleteGorgeous quilt! Too many great names have been thought of already, and I can't think of anything better. I absolutely love "Falling For You".
ReplyDeleteYour quilt is beautiful, how about Maple Chain? The design reminds me of a daisy chain, or an Irish chain quilt.

ReplyDeleteWedding gift at this time of year....Autumn Joy. Great giveaway, thanks!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful quilt! Perhaps 'Leaves of Love".
ReplyDeleteMmmmm, I'm not very good naming things, but for me atumm represent "Time of Changes"
ReplyDeleteYour quilt is beautiful and has been made with good workmanship. I can admittedly say that naming quilts is not my strength, but here are some ideas I had:
ReplyDeleteLeaf Crossing, Maple Cross, Pathway to the maple, Maple Garden Path. I am pretty sure you can find me, but if not, atticw@hotmail.com
Let me try... how about Maple Rings of Love. It's beautiful and looking forward to seeing the photos of it quilted! ellaandnesta at gmail dot com
ReplyDeleteI am so bad at naming things, but will give it a try how about Autumn Love
ReplyDeleteCrossing Leaves
ReplyDeleteI have been admiring your progress on this project, Rachel and can't wait to see it all quilted up. I am sure it is simply stunning! Autumn Splendor
ReplyDeleteI feel like with the green leaves included, it's representative of the whole year... what about "Seasons of Love"? What a lovely gift.
