Project Bags and Naming Afghans


These are my project bags.  I mentioned in a previous post I had pulled out yarn to work on projects and tucked them into project bags.  Additionally I had pulled out things that needed to be assembled into an afghan and found appropriate yarn to complete that project.

In these 7 projects bags are afghans named:
Pippi Longstocking (you saw it in a previous post)
Brown Marble
Rolling Hills
Brick Yard

Also bags of ghans to be...that I need names for:
  1. There's a blue ripple one (there was a very early picture of that right after the New Years).  I can call it blue ripple...but maybe blue waves is better? Going with Ocean Waves, see below.  Lisa you're on a roll.  Thanks loads.
  2. There's one that will be Purple and Turquoise....any ideas of names? Cute idea, Elsa's Dream from Frozen.  I did have one already titled Purple Mountain Majesty.
  3. One that will be a brown variegated and dark brown solid....any ideas on that?  See below's comments.  LOVE the suggestion of Latte' Love.  Thank you Lisa!
  4. One that's blue and grey stripes..large sections

Here's the start of the blue ripple.  A friend suggest Ocean Wave, which lead me to Blue Ocean.  The previous picture of this ghan showed brown variegated with it, which I've now decided against.  This will be shades of blue.

I'm open to ideas folks so please sing out if you have an idea.

Pictures will be forthcoming...once I get said projects out of the project bags.  

What are you all working on?

  1. I'm terrible at naming things. I organized yarn not too long ago but it needs organizing again as I've bought new yarn and have more projects in mind. It never ends but that's a good thing. Kudos to you on your organization. (No pictures this time. Just the robot thing. So odd.

  2. Maybe something coffee or cocoa related for the brown one? Anytime i see purple and turquoise together I think of the song America the Beautiful.

  3. For the turquoise and purle, I also think of the movie "Frozen". Call it "Elsa's Dream" ??? If I know who I'm making the afghan for, I include their name in the work's name.

  4. Ocean Waves was the first thing I thought of when I saw the blue ripple afghan. It is going to be beautiful. I like the idea of using coffee as a theme for the brown - maybe Latte' Love??

Where are You and Your Yarn From?

I'm trying to identify where everyone is from, partially for fun. Take a look at the map. Also, believe it will aid me in cases where we have several people with the same name. Please look at the lists of bloggers and non bloggers and see if I have the state you hail from. If not, please leave a comment and let me know.

Additionally, we've had help from Scotland, England, Germany Puerto Rico, Canada, and France! They don't appear on the map, but their help is still greatly appreciated.

Where The People Who Donate Come From, is your state represented?
