Every time we submit a new fabric collection, we also have to come up with names for the various prints. This is generally something that isn't very fun for us- mostly because we aren't very good at that sort of thing. However, when we were naming our Reunion prints, we actually had a lot of fun.
Our idea was to coordinate prints with people who would be at a family reunion. Everyone has a crazy uncle who wears silly ties, right? Here are the names we came up with:
Sally's Skirt
Nora's News
Johnny's Jacks
Timmy's Ties
Daisy's Dates
Baby's Bunting
Grace's Garden
Here they are matched up to the correct print:
Now for the contest- we left out the name that goes with "apron". The first person to guess what name we put with "apron" for the print in the photo will win oodles and oodles of Reunion scraps (thanks Moda!):
When I told my mom and sister about this contest, they didn't think anyone would guess the correct name. I have more faith in you! It couldn't be that hard- the name begins with "A" and it's a girls name. I'm sure someone will get it, but if not, we will pick a random winner.
Oh- and don't forget about Moda's Country Fair Blog Hop. Today is Sandy Klop from American Jane- and you know how much we love Sandy! In case you don't have the links, here they are again:

Based on the other names, I'm going to say
Alice's Apron, but it wasn't the first name that came to mind. We'll see if I should have gone with my first instinct. :)

Adelle's Apron
Posted by: Dandelion Quilts | Friday, September 16, 2011 at 09:20 PM

Posted by: Kathrann Jones | Friday, September 16, 2011 at 06:48 PM
Well, my first thought was Avril's Apron (like in Anne if Green Gables), but my more realistic guess was Annie's Apron. I'm pretty sure that's already been guessed. Fun!
Posted by: Jeanne | Friday, September 16, 2011 at 06:21 PM
Adele's Apron
Posted by: Becky | Friday, September 16, 2011 at 05:41 PM
