Preparing Your Quilt for Quilting
*Quilt top should be clean, pressed and trimmed down to final finished size.
*Trim any loose threads. Make sure all seams are secure.
*Use a safety pin to mark the top of the quilt.
*Remove any excess pins, buttons and other embellishments.
*The quilt top must lay flat. Measure quilt top across the top, bottom, and at the center.
*These measurements should be the same, if not you may end up with puckers and an unsquared quilt.
*Quilt top, backing and batting should be 3 separate pieces. We load them separately on the longarm machine.
*Batting and Backing must be at least 4" larger than the quilt top on all sides.
For example, if the quilt top is 60" x 70" the Batting and Backing should measure 68" x 78".
*If you prewash your quilt top it is highly recommended that you also prewash your backing fabric.
