General Information
I quilt using a Gammill Optimum quilting machine using freehand or the "Statler Stitcher", an add-on computer system which guides the quilting machine and allows it to stitch almost any design perfectly every time. Currently I have over 500 patterns to choose from.It's important that you include with the quilt, your name, address, and telephone number(s) where you can be reached if I have questions. I don't require a down payment before I begin quilting but payment is expected when the quilt is finished and delivered. Once your quilt is received I will measure it to calculate the quilting charge along with any other charges that may be needed or that we discussed. I will provide you with your total charges before beginning the quilt.
Important! -- Backing fabric and batting must be cut square and extend a min. of 4" ( 6" preferred ) past the edges of the top on all four sides!
