Julies Name Game - New Free Motion Quilting Design #488

A design of yellow stitched circles on blue fabric
New Free Motion Quilting Design #488, "Rondelle"

I had more fun with circles while creating this new free-motion quilting design.

As always, all of your name suggestions were both fun and imaginative.

The winner was chosen by popular vote (Facebook & Instagram) with a little help from a random name picker, at 6:00 PM (PDT) on Sunday, July 19, 2026.

This design is now called “Rondelle”.

Thank you and congratulations to Pam Bretz Sommers from Forest, Indiana, USA for suggesting this wonderful, winning name.
Pam says the design reminds her of stained glass rondelles.

I think you're right Pam!
