Quilt Prep Checklist
Please review the following requirements to make sure you get the best possible results.
Make sure your batting and backing are larger than your quilt top by at least 3” on all sides. If your quilt top is 60”x60”, your backing should be 66”x66”.
Square up your backing fabric so there are no uneven edges.
Backing seams should be pressed open if possible, with the selvedges removed.
Label the top of your quilt top and backing with a note and/or a pin.
Give your quilt top and backing a fresh press before mailing or dropping off.
Clip loose threads, especially dark threads that may show through white fabric.
Include your binding fabric with your quilt top and backing, if desired. Make sure that it is clearly labelled.
If you are shipping your quilt, fold your quilt top, backing, and batting separately. Place them in a plastic bag inside the mailing packaging.
