Art Quilt - name me please
I've just realised the art quilt needs a name. Urgently. I am producing my new calendar and it will be in there, so it needs a name by Monday when the calendar has to go to the printers. I may work well under pressure but I'm not so good at naming things that way. So, can you help me please. Here is the finished (well almost it's not bound yet) quilt, what should it's name be? Please leave your answers in the comments then other people can share what they think of the current suggestions. I names one of my other quilts like this and that worked really well so I have high hopes for your creativity. Please feel free to share this link and see if anyone you know has any ideas.

Demure
Thoughts on these or the others suggested here?
Blue Repose
ReplyDeleteSimply "REPOSE"
ReplyDeleteThe Blue Shoes
ReplyDeletemay be a you are all too young to remember the 1948 film "The Red shoes" which made us all want to be ballet dancers many years ago LOL !!
I see this and I see Rejection. The dancer is striped to her utter soul with rejection. Ok just my thoughts
ReplyDeleteShe is wearing ballet slippers and just finished her dance. I think a good name would be "Finale"
ReplyDeleteI would just call her the Blue Dancer. "Blue" is more than just her color, it's her personality and in this quilt, it's her state of mind.

ReplyDeleteHow about "Introspective"...she looks like she's contemplating something inside of herself...
ReplyDeleteDancing Blues or Ballet Blues
ReplyDeleteIt's so lovely - can't wait to see it!
I think she is contemplating her next dance. So Contemplative is my suggestion.

Titles can be important and express so much, so I wouldn't want to suggest anything. But this piece turned out beautifully.
