Our Services

Bring your quilt top into the shop, and based on the measurements, we provide immediate estimates for finishing for your quilt .

2. Quilt Binding Services

Take the hassle out of finishing your quilt! Bring your binding material along with your quilt top, and we’ll handle the rest:

3. Backing Seaming & Preparation Services

Need help getting your backing ready or picking out fabrics? We’re happy to handle the prep work so you don't have to stress.

  • Backing Seaming: If your backing fabric isn't seamed yet, we offer professional seaming services to make sure it’s flat, square, and ready for the frame. Current Rate: $12/seam.
  • Minor Repairs/Corrections: To help ensure the best possible outcome, your quilt will be thoroughly inspected to identify and correct minor imperfections before starting the longarming process. Current Rate: varies. 


What to Bring & Preparation Checklist

What to Bring to the Shop:

Prep Guidelines:

  • ☑️ Press & Trim: Press your quilt top and backing flat. Trim all loose threads on the front and back.
  • ‼️IMPORTANT! - Size Up Your Backing & Batting: Your backing and batting must be at least 4 inches larger than your quilt top on all four sides (8 inches wider and longer in total).
  • ☑️ Square It Up: Ensure both the quilt top and backing are squared up with straight edges.
  • ☑️ Keep Layers Separate: Do not pin or baste your top, batting, and backing together—keep them as individual, unattached pieces.
  • ☑️ Indicate Direction: If your top or backing is directional, mark the top edge with a safety pin and note.
