Why My Title????

Dawn at As Sweet as Cinnamon is asking bloggers why they chose the name of their blog, and giving a prize as well... 

 My blog came about after I realized that this quilting phase I was in wouldn't go away.  I was stuck.  I wanted a way to show what I was doing, and every once in awhile what I had done. 

I thought of various names but finally decided on One More Quilt.  I may have plans, ideas, stash all over the place, but it all comes down to finishing just One More Quilt.  If I can do that, I am still accomplishing what I want.  That Quilt may be months in the making/handquilting stage, or it may be one I "throw together" in a hurry, or it may spend most of it's life as a top (or flimsy) before I can get to it again, but I continue on....

In between, I have squeezed in bags, curtains, ironing board covers, mug rugs, and a variety of other items.....

But I always come back to....One More Quilt.....

Part of the story is also the photo I have in my header.....


You can read the background of this picture behind one of the tabs above.  Just want to say that my Great-Grandfather's pose (?) was a perfect fit for the feeling I want in this blog...happy, excited, unexpected, and as is mentioned, spontaneous....

Hope I can live up to it at times.....

I love the photo. It is unique and fun and I always have a little laugh when I open your blog.
