Homecoming Ellie
a small town here in north texas is celebrating homecoming this week, with a parade with floats and everyone comes out to celebrate.
I also think ‘Indiana Ellie’ would be cute, but my vote would be for the Sunnybrooke Farm entry. I loved the book Rebecca of Sunnybrooke Farm when I was a girl, it was my moms book and her mom’s before her
Living our country dream.
Down home
Golden Tranquility
Paisley Orchards
First Snowflake
Scout
Okay, I am not going to win any points for creativity, but I can’t stop thinking that the print in the center is JUST like an old children’s book I had as a child and regularly read to my children…THE LITTLE HOUSE. Have you all read it? From Amazon: “Virginia Lee Burton won the Caldecott Medal in 1943 for her memorable picture book The Little House, a poignant story of a cute country cottage that becomes engulfed by the city that grows up around it. The house has an expressive face of windows and doors, and even the feelings of a person, so she’s sad when she’s surrounded by the dirty, noisy city’s hustle and bustle: “She missed the field of daisies / and the apple trees dancing in the moonlight.” Fortunately, there’s a happy ending, as the house is taken back to the country where she belongs. A classic!”

Harvest Moon
Reese- after the famous Reese Witherspoon for her love of life on the farm.

Last week, my friend gave birth to a baby girl 10-weeks early. She weighed 3.9 pounds and is doing remarkably well. I thought it might be fun to name this dress after this sweet little girl who will have quite a fighting journey ahead of her. In addition, if I win, I would like to forgo giving this dress to one of my daugthers, and instead, order this dress in the smallest size possible to give to my friends daughter as a present (to wear in the near future). Therefore, let this dress be named ‘Perfect Little Lucy.’

Field of Dreams
The Corn Maiden
“Little Lassie Grey”
“Miss Lassie Gray”
“Lassie Grey”
The farm scene with small farm house and the sweet old pickup in the front reminds me of the old black and white tv show “Lassie”. I immediately thought Lassie should be in the name of this dress. In Ireland, Lassie also means damsel, or young girl. Seems fitting as well. The main farm scene is gray so I thought of her last name being grey or gray.

A Keith Urban song reference …. Gonna kick off my shoes
And run in bare feet
Where the grass and the dirt and the gravel all meet
Goin’ back to the well gonna visit old friends
And feed my soul where the blacktop ends
Saw Heartland was already suggested, so I revise mine to – Citrine. It’s the traditional November birthstone, and the color seems appropriate for this beauty.

Someone already snagged my Jenny idea! Oh, well. I’ll post my idea anyway since it is sentimental. I was raised on an Illinois farm with a menagerie of critters. Growing up I was known as “Jenny”. My dad took great joy in calling me his little “Jenny” (meaning female donkey). He found himeslef quite clever and humorous each and every time! Therefore, in honor of my dad John, I suggest naming the dress:

This would be the PERFECT name for this gorgeous dress!!
Butternut Garden
“Mary Ellen” from the Walton’s
I would name the dress “Rose Wilder.” The farm fabric immediately reminded me of Little House on the Prairie, and Rose Wilder is the name of Laura Ingalls Wilder’s daughter. I think it is the perfect name because there is also the golden colored wild rose print on the sash.

Blueberry Sam. I immediately thought of the book Blueberries for Sam that my 5 year old daughter just read. Sam is a girl in the olden days who picks blueberries and cans them with her mother. The colors of this dress along with the old school feel immediately reminded me of this….
What about “whilhelmenia”?
Do you know who the Hanson brothers are? “mmmbop” ring a bell? They are my favorite band ever! Taylor Hanson just had his 5th baby 2 days ago (probably while you were putting this dress together) they named her Whilhelmenia. How perfect would it be to name the dress after a sweet little Southern, country baby that will probably live right up to it! They are from Tulsa

“Father’s Farm”
So, my father used to drive a blue truck that reminds me of the one in the picture and was a deer hunter (helped feed a family on a budget). I have the best memories of going hunting with my dad (dressed in overalls and pony tails).
The tree in the middle (stunning) reminds me of all the family tree work that my parents have been doing to teach my sister and I our family heritage. They went all the way to Scottland this May! I think this would be my father’s farm if I were ever to write a book about him. I love it!

“Dusk Till Dawn”
Looks like a prairie, ranch, or country farm themed dress. All the colors-the golds, reds, blues, yellows, and greens look like what you would view if you were at one of those places. From the skies different colors at dusk and dawn, to the fields, flowers, and greenery.

Honey I’m home
As in, “Honey, I’m home!” My daughter is ALL about daddy, so when we hear, “Honey, I’m home!” She goes sprinting for the door! Thought the yellow color reminded me of honey, and of course, the cozy home.
I know it may not be the prettiest of names for a girls dress, but I would name the dress “Carter” and here is why: 1 year ago this week, my girlfriends son (Carter) was diagnosed with in inoperable brain tumor. Sadly, on August 13th of this year, at age 3, he lost his battle and earned his angel wings. His mom is AMAZING and her strength, grace and conviction is everything a MJ girl stands for. Carter may be gone but the good he did and the love he shared (checkout his FB page ‘Prayers for Carter’) is unmeasurable. He brought some many together in the name of love. Carter’s favorite color and “cause” ribbon was blue – like in this dress. The Golden yellow in this dress represents the gold ribbon for Childhood cancer awareness. If you choose this name, I would give the dress to Carter’s mom, so that she may auction it off and donate the proceeds to St. Judes where they lived for 10 months. This momma needs a pick me up!

Maizey Star – a litle like Mazzy Star, the most calming and relaxing music I can think of. In keeping with with the maize/corn theme that this dress is reminding everyone of, and all little girls are “stars” in their Matilda Jane
Cora Daisy – My Granny Cora Daisy worked hard in the stockyard for as many years as I can remember yet did it with style and elegance. Cora, a name that was most popular in the late 1800′s and early 1900′s means “maiden” (fresh, pure) and is also short for Corazon, meaning “heart” in Spanish. This dress and all of the little girls wearing it are surely fresh, pure and full of heart. This dress is most definately a Cora Daisy
Maizey Cora Daisy – a combination of the two and it sounds so darn cute!

Country girl
This dress is perfection! It portrays the life of my daughter so well – she loves to sit on the front porch and watch for deer or holler across the field to the neighbors and she loves riding on the tractor with her daddy while he does chores around the yard. The observations of a child are so refreshing. The other day on the way to daycare, she says to me, “Mommy, the leaves are changing colors. Then they fall off and the snow comes.” So simple. So innocent. To represent the child in all of us, I would name it after my daughter, Addisyn Marie.
Aww, shucks!

“Charlotte” after the story Charlotte’s Web. It looks like the dress the little girl named Fern would have worn. For that matter, I think “Fern” would be a nice name too!
My daughter Grace, age 7 insisted
that I submit the name “Garden Gaily” for this dress. She sat at the computer, looking at the dress saying names outloud to herself for a long time. I didn’t want to submit a name for it because it is not in her size. She said we could give it to her cousin, Maggie. She’s not near as selfish as I am!!

Wow. The warm yellows and cool blues of this dress have me thinking of america’s heartland. Rows and rows of corn and little ponds with ducks waddling around. Love the pick-up truck with the harvest-y colors and pennant banner. My parents own a farm and they have pennant flags hanging in the yard, out by the calves and the chicken coop. And that TREE! Amazing. How about “Tree of Life”? Seems the perfect fit to me

Name the dress Addition 2: “Friendly Beeps”
This beautiful little creation reminds me of my Sons favorite book “Little Blue Truck” by Alice Schertle.
It is the ‘fun, rollicking story’ of a little blue dump truck who lives on a farm and always greets animal friends with a friendly BEEP BEEP (hello). When the sweet truck goes to give assistance to a not-so-friendly dump truck, he gets stuck in the mud and all of the animals come to push together and set him free. For children, it reinforces the value of friendly beeps and the importance of helping others…
“Thanks little brother,” said Dump to Blue. “You helped me and they helped you. Now i see a lot depends on a helping hand from a few good friends.”
Matilda Jane pieces are similar to this story. As authors, the ladies of 435 have the amazing task of choosing which fabrics of different shape and design will come together to ‘lend a helping hand’. The story continues with an unpredictable F5 appearance… then travels to a closet where a little girl can celebrate the creation and continue the story.
I have my fingers crossed that the little girl who is the recipient of this functional art piece will be generous with her “friendly beeps” and helpful heart.

Lovely “country” flare in which I live as a transplanted “city” girl due to following my adventurous Preacher man from town to town. Anyhow, I think “Harper” would be a great name bc I am currently in Harperville, aka beautiful farm country, MS USA:)
“Homebody” because it makes me think of working at home at the family farm and loving every minute of it.
Johnny Appleseed

Johnna Appleseed
This reminds me of fall and apple orchards…what better name for fall than Johnny Appleseed
“The Fancy Farm Girl” :0)
Thanks for the opportunity to name a dress!!!
Sarah
Frivolous Farmhouse
Saydee Sue Daisy – A Southern name meaning “Princess of the Lilies and Daisies”. The name of my cousins little girl, who grew up on a farm and worked every day helping with the cattle, feeding the chickens, gather eggs, etc. She is the 2nd oldest of nine children, all hard working, but she is the sweetest, most beautiful and hardest working little farmer I know.

On a Whimsy – Because this week, on a whimsy, my children and I headed out of the city to watch for the squirrels and deer like my grandfather did when I was a child. On our way, we happened across the most amazing cotton field. You would have thought it was cotton candy as fascinated as my kids were (and they have seen plenty of cotton). This dress, with the fields and the deer and the old country truck, reminds me of all of the wonder that happens when you just take time out, forget about your worries and drive until something catches your fancy.

Mabon Moon.
The reason I chose this name is because the Celtic Pagan holiday for the Fall Equinox is called Mabon. It is very close to the Harvest Full Moon. And the light blues in this piece remind me of the bright crisp cool light of the harvest moon. Many people may not worship a nature based religion but are Farmers or grew up in a farming community or have a family with a farming background. Fall Equinox and the Harvest Moon are an important time of the year for many people.
Brightest Blessings,

Ressie Mae
This is my granny’s name, born and raised on a farm in Alabama. She is the strongest, sweetest, gentlest woman I know. She is generous and kind, always thinking of others. Everything I want my DD to grow up to be. She knows how to take her time and enjoy the simple pleasures in life. She is also the most amazing cook. Her favorite color is an autumn yellow. This dress reminds me so much of her and it would be an honor to see my little one in it.

This dress really reminds me of a Steinbeck novel. In thinking of names that would fit based on that, the one that seems most fitting is Salinas. Salinas is the town Steinbeck was born in located in California. He used Salinas as the setting for some of his works and wove in details of the farming community he lived and worked among in books like East of Eden, Of Mice and Men, and Grapes of Wrath.

Siann fields. It is a combined name of my grandpa Silas and his wife Annie. I also used it as a middle name for my daughter in their memory. They had a farm with cattle and me and my twin sister lived going with my grandpa and riding the tractor and feeding the cows. With technology and such a fast paced world now, so many kids don’t get to experience country life and living. I will always cherish these memories with my grandad. He was a special man and I miss him every day!
