Frequently Asked Questions
Can I drop my quilt off in person?
Yes, you can drop off by appointment Monday - Friday. I'm located in Fishers, IN near Brooks School Elementary. I will email you an exact address for drop off after you submit a request form.
How big does my backing need to be?
Your backing fabric must be 8–10 inches larger than your quilt top on all sides to allow for proper loading on the longarm machine. For example, if your quilt top measures 50" × 60", your backing should be at least 58" × 68". If your backing is not the required size, it may delay the completion of your quilt. Please also make sure the top and bottom edges of your backing are straight and even so it can be loaded correctly onto the longarm machine.
Can I mail you my quilts?
Yes, please complete a request form and I will email you the address.
What's included in the cost?
Each quilt will get a new needle and the Aurifil 100% cotton thread of your choice. The top and bottom thread will be the same color, so keep this in mind when picking out a backing. You will also get your choice of an E2E pattern.
What the turn around time?
I pride myself on a fast turnaround time, typically completing edge-to-edge quilting projects within 2 weeks. If mailing, this might take a little longer.
