First of all, thanks for all the wonderful compliments. I've shown the quilt to a few friends and they all flipped out - both because it glows and because I figured out how to put in the name.
Now about the fabric. It's Fairy Frost Glow in the Dark by Michael Miller, CG0376-GLOW-D. It isn't a solid glow, it looks like frost on a window. Although there is a slight difference, it really looks like white fabric. And, yes, you have to leave it in the light for a while for it to glow. But it doesn't have to be sunlight, just normal indoor lighting is fine. Of course, the stronger the light, the brighter the glow.
The name is on the front, using glow fabric in place of white. I'll try to put in a graphic of it. At first, I was going to use all capital letters, but then I would have had to alter two of the blocks slightly.

What a cool idea!! I don't know which side I like the best. I love them both. You did an out standing job on this quilt. I don't think I have ever seen the pattern for the front of the quilt. What is the name of the pattern please.
