Customer Supplied Materials

Binding fabric (if binding is requested)
Quilt Top and Backing Prep
Both should be clean and pressed. Please put on a hanger instead of folding if you are dropping them off.
All seams should be flat - open seams preferred.
All threads should be clipped and removed. If using white fabric on top, please ensure that colored threads are not visible from the bottom
All basting threads and pins should be removed
Backing and batting should be 8 inches longer on each side of top
Quilt top must be flat and square with no fullness in the blocks. If blocks are not square and the same size throughout quilt, it will have puckers. If puckers are found after quilt has been loaded and partially quilted, it is up to the longarmer to determine how to proceed with the quilt.
ALL DESIGNS WILL BE DISCUSSED AND AGREED UPON PRIOR TO QUILTING
If you need help with design ideas, I have many books with designs and will be happy to brainstorm with you.
