You know how it is when a co-worker’s great-nephew’s girlfriend is having a baby, and your co-worker comes to you because she “…knows you just LOVE to make quilts and it wouldn’t be too much trouble, would it, to make something for the little expected bundle of joy???” So you’re looking for something quick, really quick, but not something that looks like you didn’t care. That’s why I put together kits to make this super fast but super cute quilt.
As an experienced quilter, you know it’s just a matter of zipping those strips together. The end result, though, is a very adorable (if I do say so myself!) quilt made with my Dolly Dear fabric collection. I’m ready to add the kits to my web catalog, but I need a name for the quilt. I want something that represents how easy this quilt is, and my pea brain keeps spitting out “Stripping With the Dollies.” Yeah, I know, there’s just something wrong with that! After all, they’re already in their underwear!
So, I’m turning to you for suggestions. What would you name this quilt? I’m going to give away two kits–one to the person that comes up with the winning name, and another one to a random commenter. Here’s your chance to win! Leave me a comment with your suggestion. This should be fun!
Added July 31—Thanks to all who played along. The contest is now over! CLICK HERE to see a post about the winners.

How about Sunshine Dolly or Sunshine Dollies? They’re so bright and cheerful looking.
– not. All the ladies love to tease him about the class.)
(BTW, my local quilt store does a free demo class by one of the owners called Stripping with Johnny – I keep threatening to bring my I-pod with the ‘classic’ stripper music – yes, I’m evil
July 22nd, 2012 at 10:48 am

How about ‘Baby Dolls’
July 22nd, 2012 at 8:27 pm
They remind me of the candies in the UK that are all bright pastels. It is called Dolly Mix and that is what I’d call this quilt if I was making it. I really love the dolly fabric.

July 24th, 2012 at 11:02 pm
Thought of another one. Lickity-split Little Ladies.
July 25th, 2012 at 10:09 am
I’d call it Dressing Up Dolly.
July 25th, 2012 at 11:09 am
I wish there were only three of the little girls – I keep thinking of this series of children’s books I loved as a girl – the Betsey/Tacy books. There were three little girls, Betsey, Tacy, and Tib. Oh well. We can’t cut out the fourth girl, so it doesn’t matter.
I have thought of another one – “Slumber Party”

It’s A Girl Thing
Thats a good name Karen.
July 26th, 2012 at 12:24 am
Here are my two thoughts for names:
Dolly Slumber Party or
Goodnight My Dolly’s
July 26th, 2012 at 12:25 am
Paper dolls were my very favorite as a girl. How about “Let’s play dress-up”
or, “Let’s put on our new dresses.”
July 26th, 2012 at 12:58 am
“Dollies, Dainties and Dresses”, how does that sound?
July 26th, 2012 at 3:32 am
How about “Cutie Patooties” or “Cotton Candy Cuties”. The colors remind me of Spring time and early Summer state fairs. Cotton Candy galore.
July 26th, 2012 at 3:44 am
Dolls and Stripes
July 26th, 2012 at 3:54 am
I like ‘Dolly Mixtures’ which are the sweets here in the U.K. (Already taken), but how about ” Lets Dress up” which is something all litle girls like doing.
OR ” Milly, Molly, Mandy and Me” (MMM is a childrens book)
Would love to win this quilt for my own first granddaughter, as she might get fed up with the rainbow quilt I made her and change her bedroom to ‘girly’ colours.

Does that strike your fancy?

How about the “Bare essentials” or a “Brief Quillt”
(Groan from the pun!)
July 26th, 2012 at 6:02 am
I’m in love with this fabric! I already bought the Red, White and True Blue bundle and made the quilt top the day the fabric arrived. Just needs quilting and then I’ll post a picture to you.
For this quilt name, how about:
“Childs Play Dollies”
July 26th, 2012 at 6:05 am
When I first saw it I thought of Dearest Dollies but I see many others did as well….so my choice of a name would be ” My Dollies”

For some reason, The Princesses and the Pea came to mind when I first glimpsed this quilt. The wider strips reminded me of mattresses while the narrow ones seemed to be quilts on the mattresses. But the princesses are on the bottom instead of the top, so that’s just silly!
July 26th, 2012 at 8:07 am
How about Pastel Patty.
Enjoyed your visit to our quilt guild a few months ago.

July 26th, 2012 at 9:29 am
How about “Cut-out Cuties all in a Row.” or “Posing Paper Dollies”

I am thinking ‘Dolly Daze’ or ‘Dolly Days’ would be nice. Thanks for giving us a chance to name your quilt. Hope you’re having a wonderful summer!
July 26th, 2012 at 10:39 am
How about naming it
“Zippy Strippy Paper Dolls” OR
“Easy Peasy Paper Dolls”
Love how cute and simple this quilt is!
July 26th, 2012 at 10:50 am
I think ‘Sweet Dollies’ would be a cute name.
July 26th, 2012 at 11:04 am
That is such a cute kit! My GD is visiting from Canada, she is 8 and such a girly girl. It reminds me of her, So I would call it Girly Girl. Thank you for the giveaway, my girly girl would love to have me make her one. Judy
July 26th, 2012 at 11:10 am

Have been thinking of this quilt a lot – have already submitted two and am not a usual participant for this sort of thing. Another name for the quilt just popped into my head -
“Fashion Show”
I think I better just go ahead and buy it and if I win, then great, I have several young nieces. Or I can always keep it for that friend who knows I love to quilt and I don’t mind do I? …
