How to ship
For quality quilting service, please follow the setup
guidelines below:
·
For best results, be sure all seams and stitches are
secure. Please correct wavy or ruffled borders as they
cannot usually be quilted out. Square your quilt top. It is
a good idea to stay stitch ¼” all around the edge of the
border to help keep your quilt square.
·
Trim all excess or loose threads. Your
quilt should not be basted, pinned, or tacked together.
Please mark the “Top” of your quilt by pinning a small
piece of paper to the top end. Also mark the back if it has
a preferred top.
·
Quilt batting and backing (if provided) must be at
least of 6 to 8 inches larger than your quilt (3 to 4 inches
each side) after they have been squared with straight edges.
·
Please iron/press your quilt top and fold
carefully to avoid wrinkles.
·
If you like, Include a photo or drawing of
the type quilting you would like.
·
Enclose the order form with your quilt. Make sure you
have read and understand the information and followed the
instructions. If you have not talked with us prior to
shipping your quilt, we will contact you when it is received
to be sure your needs are understood.
·
Please insure your quilt if it is being
shipped.
·
Please enclose your quilt top in plastic to avoid any
possible water damage during shipping.
It is not a good idea to mark “Quilt “ on the outside of the
package as it can invite theft.
·
Rush requests will be accommodated whenever possible.
·
Print and complete the Order form and include in your package.
If in doubt about anything, please contact us.
