Design Wall Monday and Giveaway!

It's coming together, or at least, it's being arranged!  110 leaf blocks are (nearly all) up on the design wall today.  
I've been calling this my autumn leaves quilt.  But I have to come up with a sensational name for this quilt!  Any suggestions?  How about some incentive?  If I select the name you suggest (with assistance from Mr. Happiness), you'll receive the book "Maple Leaf Quilts" by Ilene Bartos, That Patchwork Place.  

Be sure to go see all the other design wall beauties at www.patchworktimes.com!

Stay cool all y'all,
Brita

    The Falling Leaves, Drift by . . . Oh, that's already been taken by a song writer. Maple Leaf Rag? - Okay, so I'm into song titles this morning. Anyhow, this is just gorgeous! Well Done!

    I really love this sweetie - "A Walk Amongst the Leaves" - reminds me of a fall stroll down our old logging road, split rail fence on either side, leaves over head, leaves falling and leaves rustling under foot.

    Remember that old James Bond movie "Moonraker" I think you should call it "Leafraker" Raking leaves as pretty as yours would be alot of fun!!

    How about Maple Leaf Rhapsody?
    Or my 2-year-old granddaughter's favorite new word is fantastic, so how about Fantastic Fall or Fall Fantasia?
    Beautiful quilt!
