I named my blog Featherstone Quiltworks, because at the time I was doing machine quilting for customers and that was the name of my business. The name still fits because I still quilt, and the “Featherstone” part is the name of the little slough/pond/lake/wet spot that I can see out my windows.
I did make my web address my name — mostly because it was available. In the event quilting goes away from my life, I could change my site name but keep my same blog address. That would work as long as I didn’t change my name!
Every once in a while I come across a quilting blog name that I wish I had thought of first.
Like www.secretsewingsisterhood.blogspot.com. I LOVE that name.
Like most anything with sister in the name, or secret, or sewing…
I know there are some highly intelligent and very discerning men who follow my blog (hi, Patrick, hi Jim!), so I guess referring to a sisterhood might be a little offputting to some.
Sadly The Secret Sewing Sisterhood is already taken by some pretty fabulous quilters in Australia, so you can continue to search for Featherstone Quiltworks. *sigh*
