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 :?
I totally agree--using your name shouts "non-professional." Pretend you will soon have shops across the world--"Peachy Quilts" just wouldn't do it--IMHO-- think of adjectives that could describe you anywhere---like Distintive Quilting or Distintive Long Arm Quilting, or Exquisite, or Creative, or Artisan, or Free Expression, or Finishing Touch, or.....? Thesaurus is a wonderful tool.
Good luck. I know that finding a name that suits YOU is a really difficult process---until you commit to one, and then names will be jumping out at you from everywhere! :lol: :thumbup: :thumbup:
I like the adjectives you came up with!

Artisan Longarm Quilting
Exquisite Longarm Quilting
Finishing Touch Longarm Quilting

(all 3 are at the beginning of the alphabet too!)
