No, I need to learn how to create/open one. I am taking baby steps for now.

Thank all of you the great suggestions and encourgement.

I vote for your forum name too!!

When I chose my business name I wanted something that was comforting as well as something with a local flair. Here in Newfoundland we have alot of original and creative place names across the island. Around central there is a small cove called "Comfort Cove". I went with Comfort Cove Designs as my business name. It has a touch of comfort as quilts do and it is a local place here on the island. I'm not from that place and have never been there, but I really like the name!! :)

Good luck with your business!!!

Speaking of catchy names, when we were coming back from Arkansas, we passed this flea market/antique store and it was called--------------"Fleas and 'Tiques" Isn't that catchy?? Just like in the Ozark - there are fleas and ticks! I LOVED IT!

Painting and Quilting for the Home suggests the word Decor or Design to me. Would you say you are artistic? Do you want to continue to have a focus on teaching? Or are you going to be another typical quilt store? I think it would be helpful to have your business goal identified first, then come up with the name.

You could use the artist's brush and a thimble in your logo-maybe displayed sitting on a quilt.

or should I just keep it short and simple and stick to Quilts by Ann ?

I am open for any and all suggestions
thanks


Names beginning with Q come late on lists. At times that could make a difference. If could come into play with your new business, consider swapping them around:

Ann Quilts

I agree that you do not want to start this with a "Q" as that does come late on searches........I really like Brush and Thimbles.......catchy....and it would come early on searches, where results are alphabetized.........

Annie's Quilts was my first thought then I seen other thought so also....
Funny to see Brush , that's what I have gone by for over 35 years.... nick name from mt hubby and it stuck... if he calls me by my name my cousin looks funny at him who is Connie, lol

Oh and is this going to a registered name? You need at least 3 you like for someone else might have the same name. They will do a search when you file.
