    I am starting a longarm quilting business. I have everything set up, I think, but I cannot think of a name. My name is Theresa. I live in Georgia. I asked my family for ideas and my husband and SIL suggested The Crazy Quilter. I don't crazy quilt so I didn't know if this was appropriate.
    Help! I need some ideas. Anybody have anything creative? I am stuck.

    Do you favor feathers or meandering or loops? Maybe the Loopy Quilter or the Meandering Quilter or Feather Lady or Quilter? Squash any of them together as one word, something like that. Good luck with your business.

    I like the name to tell you what the business is about. I would include "Longarm quilting" or "custom quilting" in the name.

    Whatever you choose, be sure to Google it first. The name might already be taken.

    Are there any other longarm businesses in the area? I would want my name to be distinctly different from theirs. Another thing (and I'm probably the odd gal out on this) is that I don't like to see businesses that use the owner's name. Just too home-grown, mom & pop for me. To me a well thought out business name says "professional".

    So now that I've told you all that...I now have to admit that I am not very good at coming up with suggestions for names :?
