    Cute stores! I love her stuff!!!

    1. Seamology: se·am·ol·o·gy /noun/
    1. The particularly crafty study and provision of fabric for you! 2. Lovingly homemade gifts for you!
    (something along that line..)
    I would suggest just keeping Seamology. It’s easy to remember, there’s no other names like that on a google search. It’s easy to spell. It’s a statement, a fact, a real term, and you invented it! :)

    More Ideas I think would be awesome:
    2. Seamless Fabrication
    3. Seamology Fabrication
    4. Fabrication of Seamology
    5. Seams like Oodles of ____ (fun, joy, goodies)
    6. Seams like Oodles of Doodles
    7. Seamless Doodles
    8. Brandi’s Seamless Oodles
    9. Seamology & Fabricology
    10. Seams So Sweet

    Good luck! I hope you find one you love! :)

    1. 51.1

      You might just be right :) I love the definition !!

    2. 51.2

      Hi Jordi,
      Guess what….Brandi decided to keep the name Seamology, like you suggested! So out of the entries that suggested to keep Seamology, I did a random drawing for the fabric bundles. You were not that winner, BUT Brandi wanted to give you a little something for helping her decide to keep Seamology, so she is offering you 50% off in her shop, Seamology, using code: contest50
      Anyways, thanks for playing! If you have any questions, just let me know.
      thanks!

    duology

    according to websters online dictionary

    “A duology, or dilogy is a set of two works of art, usually a two-part series relating to literature or film, that develop a single theme over two works.[citation needed] It may or may not involve a sequel and/or prequel”

    it says usally realating to literature or film. that doesn’t mean it can’t relate to 2 artistic fabric shops!

    dilogy is my second choice.

    What about “from start to finish” cause you have the fabric in one shop and the finished projects in the other.

    Pucker Thingamajigs {Pucker: Brit – Great/Good… Also referring to fabric} {Thingamajigs: Brit – Things}
    The Sewing Hub

    Fingers crossed you love one of them!!

    I think the name Seamology it pretty awesome, and easy to remember (and spell). Some Etsy shops have long (and ridiculous) names. Getting too complicated, or sounding like other store names can lose business. But since I have to make suggestions, here are a few:
    1. Seams Perfect
    2. Seamology Fabricated
    3. Materialized
    4. Seams Stiched
    5. seriously Seamology is your best bet. It is clever, catchy…and I don’t think anyone can find a better name (I sure can’t)

    LeAnn

    I simply like Seamology. However, since she’s asking for more ideas, I like:

    Yards and Yields
    Sew–No Sew
    See B Sew
    Brandi’s Sewing Confections (or Fabric Confections by Brandi… Brandi’s Confections)
    Pin, Cut, Sew

    (Brandi shares a birthday with my baby–Happy barely belated birthday, Brandi!!!)

    1. 91.1

      Thank you, happy birthday to your baby!

    DoodleSeams…..I just like that name!

  43. 93
    darci

    i dont know why you would want to combine 2 different shops. Keep them different and let each shop focus on what it does best.
    that said, if you do choose to combine. Just keep the Seamology name. Drop the other one.

  44. 94

    Here are my thoughts:

    Seamlessly Doodles

    Seams to B Doodles (Seems to be Doodles)

    Stitches n’ Things

    Sew Doodles

    Hope one of those is good enough. :)

    1. 94.1
      pj

      I really think your names work great for your products! I came up with these ideas, and searched shops on etsy to make sure there weren’t any already with these names:
      1) SeamBDoodles
      2) BDo-ology
      3) Fabrilogic (checked etsy)
      4) Handoodles
      5) Doodlestitch
      Have a fizzyknit time picking out your new name. Best wishes!

    I gave this a few days’ thought and only came up with one: Doodling in the Seams (or some variation of that, like Doodling with Seams, Seam Doodles.) Hope that helps.
