Another possibility -- "Red Sky at Night" or maybe "Sailor's Delight"?

My only suggestion would be that you reverse the terms and call it Ice and Fire, in a charmingly gratuitous reference to the sprawling George R.R. Martin fantasy epic.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29880024.post-6202532394420531892007-10-02T22:47:00.000-07:002007-10-02T22:47:00.000-07:00This comment has been removed by the author.Unknownhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15561694921303812888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29880024.post-37371932972765878912007-09-30T11:36:00.000-07:002007-09-30T11:36:00.000-07:00The first name that came to me was "sunlight and d...The first name that came to me was "sunlight and dusk" and "sunshine and evening." <BR/><BR/>Then a flower angle occurred to me, but I don't know flowering plants well enough to suggest anything better than "violets and orange blossoms" or maybe "violets and marigolds." <BR/><BR/>But I think I like many of the song title suggestions better.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-29880024.post-43078053599872787902007-09-29T22:46:00.000-07:002007-09-29T22:46:00.000-07:00Wow!

I tried to think what my current favorite song might be right now, and the one that popped into my head is "The Inkwell" (Blue Scholars), which is funny because it is probably the worst possible name for the quilt.<BR/><BR/>As far as the quilting pattern, your wish is my command. As far as the blue flowers, I've never seen blue flowers until right now. I've always thought of it as orange stars within blue circles, or, um, nimbi....<BR/><BR/>@jovali: Aw, thanks!<BR/><BR/>@gl.: Yes you may! : )<BR/><BR/>@critical bill: I got a good laugh out of "I Am Curious (Orange)."<BR/><BR/>@loulee: You know, I don't think of myself as "doing orange" either, but suddenly half my projects seem to involve orange.
