Frequently Asked Questions

WHAT TYPE OF LONGARM SERVICES DO YOU PROVIDE?

  • At Looped Quilting, we do all-over computerized edge-to-edge quilting.  This is when you select a design, and I load that design into the computer that controls my longarm machine.  The machine then stitches the design at the scale we select.   
    ​

HOW MUCH DOES IT COST TO HAVE MY QUILT TOP LONGARM QUILTED?

  • Edge-to-edge computerized is $0.025 per square inch

  • Our minimum charge for quilting is $50.
     

HOW DO I NEED TO PREPARE MY QUILT?

Tidy it up by pressing your top and backing

  • Clip any stray threads or raveling fabrics.  

  • Bring backing that is AT MINIMUM 4 inches larger than your quilt top ON ALL SIDES.

  • Additional charges may apply if mending, squaring, or pressing is needed.  I will contact you first before doing the required additional work. 
     

WHAT’S THE LARGEST SIZE QUILT I CAN SEND YOU?

  • I can quilt a top that is a maximum of 124 inches wide.
     

I’M LOCAL, CAN I DROP IT OFF?

  • Absolutely! I welcome clients to my studio by appointment.
     

WHAT IS YOUR TURNAROUND TIME?

  • This depends on the time of year.  I average a 2-3 week turnaround, but during the holidays and school summer break, this increases.
     

CAN I USE MINKY FOR MY BACKING?

  • Yes!  Quilting looks amazing on Minky!  If you need to piece your Minky, please ensure that the seam will run horizontally when the backing is loaded. 
     

I’M A NEW QUILTER.  CAN I STILL SEND YOU MY QUILT?

  • Yes!  I love working with new quilters! 
     

CAN I PROVIDE MY OWN BATTING?

    • Hobbs 100% cotton, 96 inches wide, $0.28/linear inch

WHAT KIND OF THREAD DO YOU USE?

  • I use Glide, Innovatech, and Superior. My machine is not picky when it comes to thread, so if you have something specific in mind, let me know.
     

I’M STUCK PICKING A DESIGN. CAN YOU HELP?

  • Of course!  Let’s talk about what you like and I can help guide your decision.

     

I DON'T SEE THE DESIGN THAT I WANT ON YOUR WEBSITE. CAN I SELECT SOMETHING THAT YOU DO NOT CURRENTLY HAVE?
