This is going to be short and sweet. I had a lot of "press" on my blog name with the Blogger's Quilt Festival this past week (which I'm still only about 1/2 way through!)
The hubs and I were talking about it and I was commenting I was asked about it often. I chose it because I wanted a name that fit (and oh yes it does) and that I thought would be easily remembered (is it?) in case I ever did anything business related in the quilt world.
He said he could come up with a few other adjectives and when pressed, wisely stated, "Sexy, sassy, sarcastic quilter." I suspected he was really thinking, "Bitchy barbie sarcastic quilter." :-)
Anyway, some of the names I've come across that I love:
Sarcastic Quilter (of course I have to include me!)
Bitchy Stitcher
Quilting in my Pyjamas (I do it often but not often enough)
Ditchin Time Quilts
The Confused Quilter
Cheaper Than Therapy Quilting
The Reluctant Quilter
I know there are others but they are escaping my mind. Tell me what are some of the best blog names you've come across? They don't have to be quilt related. Just which ones struck a funny with you?
Cheers! Beck
