TLC-Theresa's Longarm Creations

I like the name to have quilting in it therefor if someone does a search it pops up so I think Terri's Longarm Quilting is the one I would choose.

How about Professional Longarm Of Georgia
or Artistic Longarm Services.
Or Great Finishes, Longarm quilter.

I am an herbalist and named my business "Isle of Herbs." When you say it, people think you are saying "I love Herbs." I got the idea from a writer who named her book "Isle of View.' CUTE, huh? You might want to think about "Isle of Quilts" or something similar. Where in Georgia are you? We are traveling there in a few weeks and my daughter lives in Cumming. Are you near there? I might use your services.

That's a GREAT one!!!!

I would try and use something that starts at the beginning of the alphabet. That way anyone googling or looking it up in the phone book would see it at the top or close to it. A Professional Quilter comes to mind but that's just a thought. I'm not much at coming up with names.

Great ideas coming in. I like several and am trying to choose. Keep em coming.

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!)
