Edge to Edge quilting
Product tabs
Choose from thousands of edge to edge quilting patterns from the Intelliquilter computerised design system. Drop off (near Haddington, East Lothian) or post your quilt and finish your project without struggling to handle your beautiful work on a domestic machine. Edge to edge prices vary depending on the size of the quilt. You can use the drop down option to select the size of your quilt to view the quilting cost. Prices start at £70.00 (including thread).
Booking
There are two ways to book a quilt in for the longarm quilting service.
Option 1. Pay in advance. Use the drop down to select your quilt size and add postage if your quilt is to be returned by post (available in the UK only). You will be contacted with next steps (a design consultation) once your order has been received.
Option 2. Get in touch by email to book your quilt in (pay later). Contact page.
Design
Whether you're dropping a quilt in-person or you're posting it to me, the next step is a design consultation. I'll ask you to complete a form with a few questions about some of the core aspects of the quilting you require. Based on that form we will then either chat in person or via video call (once I've received your quilt) to discuss options and agree a quilting plan.
The computerised quilting system I use (Intelliquilter) has thousands of patterns to choose from. Designers include (in alphabetical order): Dave Hudson, Debra Geisler, Deborah Lobban, Donna Kleinke, Intelligent Quilting, Irena Bluhm, Jessica Schick, Judy Lyon, Karen Thomson, Keryn Emmerson, Kim Diamond, Laura Lee Fritz, Linda Lawson, Lisa Calle, Loes can der Heijden, My Creative Stitches, Nancy Hacke, Urban Elementz, and more..
You may have an idea of the exact pantograph you'd like to use. If I don't have it I should be able to get it for you. That cost will pass to you in addition to the cost of your quilting.
An initial consultation helps to narrow down the types of patterns you would like on your quilt (traditional/modern, floral, geometric, seasonal). I want you to be delighted with your quilt - the pattern(s), quilting density, and the thread choice.
Quilting
I will aim to complete your quilt as soon as possible but you should expect a 4 week turnaround time from receipt of your quilt top and backing. If it's for a special occasion and you're short of time, let me know and I'll see if I can juggle things to accommodate you.
Preparing your quilt:
- Do not baste your quilt.
- Your backing should be 4" larger than your quilt on all sides. In other words, if your quilt is 40" x 50", your backing should measure 48" x 58".
- If your quilt is directional, please ensure pin a piece of paper at the top of both your quilt top and backing fabric.
Receiving your quilt
You will receive a call and email once your quilt is complete. Once your payment has been received we can arrange collection or postage to you.
