BASTING Service

Do you hate the tedious task of basting your quilt layers together?

I provide professional basting services on my longarm quilting machine. This process ensures that your quilt top, batting, and backing are sandwiched smoothly and evenly. Using long running stitches at 5" apart, your quilt "sandwich" will be returned to you, ready to quilt. Once quilted, you will be able to remove the basting stitches easily.

This service includes:

Sandwiching your quilt top, batting, and backing
Basting with long running stitches around the perimeter of the quilt, and every 5" horizontally and vertically
Glide polyester thread is used for ease of removal, in a contrasting colour to your quilt top and backing

Calculate the square inches of your quilt top by multiplying the width x length, and then choose your pricing option below:

Baby Size Quilt	(up to 1,200 sq in):	$25
Crib Size Quilt	(1,201 to 1,874 sq in):	$30
Throw Size Quilt	(1,875 to 3,249 sq in):	$35
Twin Size Quilt	(3,250 to 6,300):	$45
Double / Full-Size Quilt	(6,301 to 9,180):	$55
Queen Size Quilt	(9,181 to 9,720):	$65
King Size Quilt	(9,721 and up):	$75

Quilt Preparation Notes:

Please ensure that your quilt top and backing are square
Your backing and batting need to be larger than the quilt top by at least 4" on each side.
Please press your quilt top and backing before dropping them off.
Additional charges may apply if extra work is required at $25 per hour.
This service is only available for drop-off and pick-up
