Before mailing or dropping off your quilt top,  here are some tips for the best results: 

- Press quilt top well.

-Clip all loose threads.

-Square up quilt top to make as straight as possible - perfectly square is not a requirement.

- Mark the top of the quilt with masking or painter's tape.
-Edges coming apart? You have the option to sew around your quit top to prevent flipped up edges during quilting.  Use a 1/8" seam allowance.  Not required.

​

Providing your own backing or batting?   

-Please make sure there is a minimum of 8" extra length in both width and length of both backing and batting. 

          We carry multiple options for both backing and batting.

-If piecing your backing, run a generous 1/2" seam allowance. 

-Use only high quality options.
