Baby Quilt-Needs Name

I love making baby quilts!

One of my best friends is having her second baby.  She’s having a girl.  My friend doesn’t really like girly colors or baby colors (ie, no pastels and nothing overly girly).  She likes earthy colors.  So I dug deep in my collection and came across a fat quarter bundle I had of About Town, by Monaluna for Robert Kaufman.  Perfect.

I chose the Sanpshots patern from the Happy Hour (by Atkinson Designs) pattern book.  I love all the patterns in this book, and can’t wait to try them all!

So loving how this baby quilt is turning out!  It’s girly, without being overly girly and it’s also earthy with the browns and greens!

I need help naming this quilt!!!  Any suggestions?

    I love this! It’s adorable! I’m horrible at naming quilts but when I read your comment about being “earthy” and the “greens” I instantly thought “inchworm”. Do you remember that green inchworm that you could ride years ago. (well I don’t know your age…so I’ll just say I remember it from my childhood!)But I don’t know if that would work for this quilt because it’s awfully pretty! Maybe…”caterpillar”…because they are sometimes green, fuzzy and they always turn into a beautiful butterflies… Good luck coming up with a name!

    Thanks for your suggestions Jen! I do like your suggestion of “caterpillar.” Now that our house guests have left I can get back to quilting…need to get the binding on this quilt.

    So cute! It’s for a baby, right? I was thinking peek-a-boo because it’s like little peek a boo windows. :)

    Thanks for the suggestion Emily! Maybe a play on peek a boo…something like pink-a-boo? And this is a baby quilt for a baby girl set to make her arrival in December to very down to earth parents. :)
