Quilt Top

• Please ensure that your quilt top is well pressed and all loose threads have been trimmed.
• Helpful: A row of stay stitching applied 1/8" around the edge of the quilt will help prevent it from stretching and it will keep seams that run to the end of the edges from separating.

• Please ensure your backing fabric is at least 4" larger than your quilt top on all sides.  For example, a 70"x96" quilt requires a minimum backing size of 78"x104".
• If you are piecing your backing, please remember to sew sides together using a 1/2"  seam allowance. 
• Press your backing seams open.
• Backing should be as square as possible - sides need to have straight edges and corners should have right angles.
• Sheets will not be accepted as backings.

A 10% discount will be given to those using extra wide backing with no piecing.

Batting

• Similar to the backing, please ensure your batting is at least 3" larger than your quilt top on all sides.  For example, a 70"x 96" requires a minimum backing size of 76"x 102".
• I do not carry a large inventory of batting so if you wish to purchase from me let me know so I can quote you a price and verify my availability.  If you choose to bring your own, please ensure that your batting is suitable for machine quilting.

Please note: An additional labour charge of $20/hour will be added for any miscellaneous work (ex. seam repair, piecing, squaring up backing, etc.)  Customer will be advised of any additional work required before proceeding.
