How to get your quilt ready for longarm quilting: 

  • Press to make sure all the seams are flat and your quilt lays flat
  • Clip all threads and remove, even from underneath as they may show through after quilting
  • Make sure there are no holes or broken seams. You can hold it up to a light to check
  • Square up and trim the quilt top to its final size-measure across the middles first from side to side and top to bottom, then check the outer edges.
  • Stay Stitch ⅛” all around the outside edge of your quilt top. This will ensure that all seams at the edge will stay stitched and helps to find any loose threads.
  • If the backing is 44", please piece it before bringing it in. There will be extra charge for us to piece it. 
  • Press backing pieced fabric seams open to help it to lie flat
  • Add extra 6 inches all around the quilt top of backing fabric. 

Thread and batting are extra. We recommend using Glide thread for long arm quilting
