Pieced quilt tops should be flat, square and parallel. We will try our best but fullness and puckering may not always be able to be quilted out.

When attaching borders, take time to measure width and length through the centre of the quilt top and ease the seams if necessary to ensure straight borders and parallel sides.

Seams should be pressed to lay flat and to the darker fabric side with all selvedges removed.

Do not baste or pin your quilt together.

Indicate top edge of quilt.

Backing fabric must be square and parallel and 6 inches (15cm) longer and 6 inches (15cm) wider than the measurement of the quilt top. Backing fabric must be pre-washed and ironed. If backing is joined, then the seam should be a half inch ironed open and flat.

If supplying your own wadding it must be square and parallel and 6 inches (15cm) longer and 6 inches (15cm) wider than the measurement of the quilt top.

Please note that the same colour cotton will always be used on the front and back of the quilt.

Proper preparation will ensure the best result and save extra charges.
