During 2015 I am only taking custom quilting requests. Please contact me for a quote for your quilt.
Shipping
Shipping costs are the responsibility of the customer. I ship using USPS – cheapest delivery option available (unless you request otherwise) with insurance & delivery confirmation. I can not be responsible for the quilt once it leaves my hands, so please keep this in mind.
Batting
I offer cotton or wool batting charged at $10.50 per yard, you are welcome to provide your own batting as long as it is of a high quality.
Battings currently available: Quilters Dream 100% Cotton & Hobbs Heirloom 100% Wool
Thread
I tend to use Superior Threads So Fine #50 for most quilting & Superior Threads Bottom Line for the bobbin thread - but I am happy to use any thread you request.

***********************
Before you
send your quilt top & backing material:
1.
Are the thread ends trimmed?
2. Is
the quilt top pressed so the seams are flat?
3. Do
the borders lay flat or are they wavy?
4. Do
your blocks lay flat.
5. Is
the quilt clean?
6. Have you marked which end is top & bottom?
Your quilt
is ready to send if it is - trimmed, pressed, borders even, flat (relatively), clean
and clearly marked!
