Take a look at what your quilting philosophy is. I think the best names are the ones that express that inner philosophy. Identify that and make it your own, in your own words. Above all, don't choose something that is close to other businesses wordwise and research which names will come up at the top of a search list rather than the bottom. Search for and buy your dotcom name even if starting your own website won't be the first thing.

Phyllis -
I have really enjoyed the quilt blocks painted on the barns in our area. Could you possibly use a name that would go along with those? Phyllis's Quilting Barn or something? That would give you the "country" connection. Just a thought.

I'm terrible with coming up with names, but I do have a suggestion when thinking of a name.
My suggestion is to make the name show/explain what your business entails.
I like to be able to know what the business is selling by their name, i.e. Granny's Quilt Shop and Supplies.
Just my two cents worth.
Good luck with your venture. I hope it all works out for you and your hubby. :)
