Here's an easy way to remember: Four-for-four! We require the backing to be 4" extra ON ALL SIDES. For example, if you have a quilt top that is 60" x 80", your backing should measure at least 68" x 88". It can be bigger, not smaller. Extra fees may apply if we need to put extra time and effort into getting your quilt ready to load. If you have questions, please ask :-)
We’re passionate about being able to give you results you will love! Teamwork!
Note about using bedsheets as backing: Those with excessively high thread counts (ie. 600-800) can cause bobbin tension nightmares and inconsistent stitching results. Therefore, I do not recommend using these Backing Divas.
Tidy it up!
Tidy it up!
Please press your top and backing for us so that it's nice and tidy and ready for us to load. Please also clip stray threads or raveling fabrics as best as you can. You might not be able to get them all, but to prevent dark threads shadowing through your quilt top, don't skip this important step!
