Name

I finally decided on a name for my company.

Galaxy Quilting & Embroidery

I have a couple of reasons for choosing this name. 

1. I don't want to do run-of-the-mill quilts and embroidery. Of course I'll have cute stuff and country-ish stuff and fun stuff but I also want to do out their stuff and crazy stuff and unusual stuff. I feel that my stuff will encompass everything in the universe.
2. I have been making quilts for my mom and recently started on a quilt for my son Joe. The quilt is entitled "Spiral Galaxies" and it has some galaxy quilt blocks on it. Well, being the person I am I couldn't just do an all over pattern on such a cool quilt so I decided to design my own spiral galaxy block to stitch it with. So the first design I ever designed myself was a spiral galaxy. 
3. The third reason is probably Dave. Since he is in Astrophysics I kind of wanted a name that would represent us as a family. I love astronomy and anything to do with space so it kind of fits. I really liked Quantum Quilting but as someone pointed out, it might confuse people and it would be hard for many to spell. I agree since I'm a terrible speller and I want people to be able to find me.
4. ...and last because I like it. It just sounds right to me. It is everything I want in a name. 

I thought I would use the first block I designed as a logo. This is a couple of pictures of it. 

 

This is actually a little more advanced then my original design. This specific design is a remix of the original. The one I have on Joe's quilt is just the center spiral and not the outside spirals. I added those later to put on my son Isaac's quilt. His is blackholes and I designed it to fit perfectly on his but I still think it looks more like a galaxy and so I still want to use this design for the logo. 

Here is what the design looks like on Joe's quilt.

Let me know which design you like the best and that will be my logo. I need to get a website going so I can get quilting. I hope you like all the stuff I'm doing. I am sure having a blast.
