SERVICES
Longarm Services:
All of our Longarm quilting services are completed on our Innova M24. We have a selection of over 100 quilting patterns and designs to choose from. We will work with you to help you choose the designs and thread color that will turn your quilt top into a treasured quilt.
Edge to Edge (pantograph/all-over) - A single pattern is applied across the entire quilt top. Many designs are available to enhance or complement your quilt’s design. If you would like to choose your edge-to-edge quilting design, below are some websites you can visit:
Quilting Prices – includes thread
Open Edge-to-Edge All Over Design -- $.02 - depends upon the design you choose
Dense Edge-to-Edge All Over Design -- $.03
(There is a $50 minimum charge per quilt)
You can estimate your quilting costs by multiplying your width measurement by your length measurement and multiplying by .02. For example: 60" x 70" quilt costs $ (60 x 70 = 4,200) (4,200 x .02). Batting and additional services are extra.
Backing
All backing MUST be at least 4" inches larger than the quilt top, on all 4 sides. If you send backing that is not large enough, I will not be able to load it to the long arm frame without adding additional yardage. This fee will start at $30 to cover the time and additional yardage that will need to be added to the backing.
If you purchase batting from me, I will seam it free. If you choose to mail backing yardage directly to me, I am happy to piece your basic backing for $10 per seam
Trimming:
Can be done upon request, as well as squaring the quilt for an additional charge
​
Postage
Will be paid for by the customer. I encourage you to ensure your quilts both directions.
Preparing Your Quilt
-
Press the quilt top and backing.
-
Please trim all loose threads from the quilt top, on both sides. Dark threads will show through white fabric if not trimmed prior to quilting.
-
Backing must be at least 4″ larger than the quilt top on top, bottom, and both sides. This allows me to load your quilt properly to the frame. Additional fees will be billed if I have to add additional yardage to make the backing large enough to load.
-
Mark the top of the quilt with a pin and post-it note, do this for both the quilt top and the backing if your quilt is directional.
-
For best results, quilt top & backing must be square. It cannot be properly loaded if it’s not square.
Batting
We prefer to use our batting as we want to achieve the very best stitch quality on your quilt.
We stock the following batting: ​
-
Hobbs 100% Cotton
-

​NOTE: Making and / or applying curved binding or other special applications will cost extra

Example: Linear inches are calculated by adding all four sides together (60 + 60 + 70 + 70 = 260 x .15 = $39

Fullness Disclaimer
Fullness and/or puckers within a quilt and its borders cannot be quilted out. We cannot guarantee that puckers and tucks won’t be sewn in. In some cases excessive fullness in borders may result in the quilt corners not being square. The flatter your quilt top is, the better the finished quilt will be.
Mechanical Disclaimer
Please be aware that sewing machines, including longarm machines, are mechanical devices. Although we do our utmost to ensure perfect results every time, on very rare occasions mechanical problems can occur which may cause minor damage to a quilt top and/or backing. We will do our very best to remedy the problem.
