New Free Motion Quilting Design #328 "A-mazing"

This new Free Motion Quilting design, inspired by a 17th century hedge maze has been named.

The winner was chosen by popular vote (Facebook & Instagram) at 6:00 PM (PDT) on Sunday June 25, 2023.

This humble design received the most comments ever with an astounding 36 name suggestions.

It is also the first design to have the winning name honors shared by two namers.

How can that be you ask?
Well... when a name is suggested by two or more people I always go by the time stamp on the comment.
Suggestions with a later time stamp count as a vote.
For the first time ever the name with the most votes was suggested simultaneously by two different people in two different places.

The winners are ...

Christine Hustins of Nanaimo B.C. and Susan Davies of Kingston upon Hull, East Yorkshire, England.

Thank you and congratulations for suggesting 
“A-mazing”, the wonderful and very appropriate (amazing) winning name!
