Mystery...Monday?? O, wait...that was yesterday...
So...it will have to be (once again)
Mystery Tuesday.
It's a bit of a Mystery to me...how a quilt shop owner
might come up with the name for their store.
They might just inherit the name...or, maybe they had the
opportunity to "create" a NEW name for their store.
Below is a list of Quilt Shop Names...and, the list is just a
to get YOU started...thinking!
Three Ducks on a Roof
Forget-Me-Knots
Sew Unique Quilt Shop
Dream Crafters Quilt Shop
Speckled Hen Quilts
Patchwork Plus
OK Quiltworks
Prairie Quilts
The Pink Poodle Quilt Shop
The Bunk House
Waterwheel
Roundabout Quilting
Quilted Angel
Tea Time Calicos
Purple Frog Quilts
Tater Patch
Rumpled Quilt Skins
What do YOU think?...did I make up any of these quilt store
names? Or are they all real store names? And, I'm thinkin'
it could be great fun if YOU might list a few Quilt Store names.
....Maybe you have an "original" idea for naming a quilt store.
OR,...maybe YOU've heard of some fun and/or unusual
store names in your quilt shop travels?
