PLEASE READ THIS CAREFULLY

  • Please take the time to snip loose threads from the back of your quilt top. These may show through the lighter colors of your quilt.
  • Press quilt top and backing fabric. Please make sure your seam allowances are pressed properly. All seams must be flat.
  • For best results, stitch ¼” around the edge of your quilt top. This helps keep the borders from stretching while being quilted. This is a must if your quilt top has several seams on the edge.
  • Do not baste, pin, or mark your quilt top.
  • Please mark which side is the top of your quilt (if applicable) by pinning to it a small piece of paper labeled “TOP.”
  • If you have a special direction you want the top and the backing to go, please indicate with a small piece of paper labeled (TOP) pinned to top of quilt as well as the backing.
  • Your quilt top, backing and batting must have STRAIGHT edges. SQUARE  IT UP PLEASE.  There is a charge for this to be done.
  • Your quilt backing and must be 10 inches wider and 10 inches longer than your quilt top.
  • Batting must be 6 to 8 inches wider and longer than quilt top.
