Preparation of Quilt Top and Backing

 

Please square your quilt top and back.

Do not baste your quilt.
Identify the head of the quilt top either with a safety pin or a piece of tape.
All quilt backings should be a minimum of 4 inches wider and 5 inches longer than the quilt top.
No buttons, charms, pins, etc. on the quilt top.
Check quilt top for seam breaks.
Loose threads on the quilt top and backing should be clipped. On lighter fabrics all loose threads should be clipped as they may show through.
Backing and top should be pressed. Please press all seams open. There is a charge if I have to press them.
No bed sheets for backing please. Many wonderful fabrics come in wide widths and can be used for backing.
