Tomorrow I'll be back to making some more atc's. I should have some photos to share later in the week. I also bought some fabric paints to play with, and have my first batch of rust dyeing brewing now. It's been a creative week!

finished a quilt started in about 2000
This quilt was started in about 2000, I think. I saw a photo of a quilt by Mary E Fox, and it inspired me to try something similar. It turned out very dramatic. I'm still trying to think of a name for it. Anyone have any ideas?

That is striking indeed. I'm naming-challenged: my first thought for a name was "Heart Attack!" because of the intense red and that the zigzaggies remind me of my dad's heart monitor last year (so maybe "Arythmia" would work as a title heh).
WOW! It is so striking, I just love the quilting that has been done on it. It helps to reflect the stormy affect. It is like a lightening strike. I love it.

I was thinking heartmonitor too!! What about Heatbeat?!?
Yes I would agree whole heartedly to the above comments and naming!!
Must feel a very positive achievement to have finished it :-)
What a fantastic quilt, I was going to say striking but that has been used twice already. I dont know what to comment of first the pattern, the vibrant colour or the inovative quilting,I always love to look at your work. What about calling it ' High Voltage ' Keep them coming..........Margaret in Smithton
just gorgeous...but I am no help with names....I am not great with naming quilts,butI like Sion's Arythmia...sounds better than Heart Attack! LOL...and I like the "Rythm" in the middle...
YOur boxes and wrapped cords are really fabulous too...I am going to have to look at those sites...not that I need any more projects at this point of time!
I.C. Red
(icey red/i see red)
... to me it kind of looks like fire and ice (that could be a good name too - "fire and ice" - lol)
or ... "red alert"
("be alert - the world need more lerts"? ;-)
"Zapped"?
"Raspberry Zing"? or "Raspberry Fizz"?
I guess the possibilities are endless - that is usually (but not always) the problem I have with nameing things I make - which one do I choose out of the several that I thought of?! LOL
(but that just makes it harder if I make something and I finish it and realise that I still have not thought of any names for it! ... think that has happened to me once so far ... but I think the simple boring name I came up with was probably the best name for it - suited it better than if I had come up with something weird and long like the names a lot of my stuff has).
My first thought was EKG! Funny how many of us are on the same wavelength... I then morphed that to Lifelines.....
Let us know what you decide!
Cheers, Sarah
Oh, Smoke and Flames springs to mind! It's visually stunning, Cat. I envy those who can quilt. I don't have the patience for it.
Looks fantastic! yOU ARE VERY TALENTED!
The only thing that comes to mind is WOW!
How about EKG. It reminds me of the reading on an EKG machine..... remember watching Emergency?? LOL
i'm speechless - what a stunning quilt and the quilting is perfect!
