Preparing Your Quilt for Quilting
We ask that you bring us your quilt as a separate top and back. Your backing must be larger than your top. We prefer that it be at least 10 inches bigger than your quilt top, meaning if your top is 60″ x 70″ we need your backing to be 70″ x 80″. If you have extra fabric, you don’t need to cut it off, we’re able to just roll it onto the machine and it’s not in the way. We request that the edges of your back are straight to facilitate the loading process.
We also ask that you check to make sure that there is minimal ‘fullness’ in your borders and your quilt is as square as possible. In extreme cases, when your quilt is not square it can lead to wrinkles, folds, or waves in your quilt top. A quick check to see if your quilt is fairly square is to fold it in quarters and see if the outside edges line up well. Or, you can take a square edge such as a ruler or piece of paper and place it on one of your corners. Alternatively, you can lay your quilt flat on the floor. If there is a wrinkle that you seem to chase around the outside edge and can’t get to lay flat then you’ve got a bit of a fullness problem. We are always willing to help correct problems such as these. Please give us a call and schedule a time to stop out!
Please press or starch your quilt so that there aren’t (m)any wrinkles and the seams lay flat. When you bring your quilt in we will hang it on a hanger to keep any further wrinkles from forming. If you would like to bring your quilt in on a hanger we will make sure that your hanger is returned to you when you pick up your quilt.
