Prepare your top for quilting. *

• Check Seams for holes. Check and fix all seams to ensure are completely sewn.

• Trimming: Trim threads and dog ears.  If have embroidery, applique, or flippy corners, cut out additional fabric and stabilizer from back side, leaving only the top layer.

• Starch and Press.  Starch from the back side will help secure threads. Press seams in the direction they want to lay.

• Make sure borders lay flat.  Measure the quilt across in three places on each side to make sure the measurements are the same. Fluffy borders make puckers.  Re-Sew borders accordingly.

• Victory Lap: Sew around the outside edge or your quilt top 1/8 in from the edge to secure seams and eliminate stretch.

• *If excessive thread cutting, repair, pressing, and starching are necessary extra fee will be charged.

• ex.  quilt top measures 45" x 60" then batting and backing need to be 53" x 68" minimum.  

• All flannel must be pre-washed and shrunk.

• A 10 in by 30 in or longer strip of extra top and backing fabric must be included for tension testing.​
