LET'S WORK TOGETHER!

Get ready for the fun part!

PREPARATION:

 

What size should my backing be?

I require the backing to be 4" extra ON ALL SIDES. For example, if you have a quilt top that is 60" x 80", your backing should measure at least 68" x 88". It can be bigger, not smaller.

TIDY IT UP:

Please press your top and backing for me so that it's nice and tidy and ready for me to load. Please also clip stray threads or raveling fabrics as best as you can. You might not be able to get them all, but to prevent dark threads from shadowing through your quilt top, please don't skip this important step!

It's also a good idea to take a "victory lap" around the outside edge of your quilt. To do this, with a regular stitch length, stitch 1/8" away from from the outside raw edge of your quilt top, around the entire perimeter, being careful to not stretch the fabric. This extra line of stitching helps to keep your seam allowances in the direction you pressed them, and gives your seams an extra level of protection from being pulled apart. And don't worry, this stitching will be hidden nicely by the binding! 

 

QUILTING CHOICE:

 

I want this to be fun for you and not overwhelming! I'm happy to give suggestions or even choose for you. Sometimes "done" is best. Together, we can give your quilt the beautiful texture it deserves.
