• Contact me personally for order acceptance before mailing your quilt to me.
• Fill out and include an order form with each quilt.
• Do NOT baste, pin, or otherwise make a "sandwich" of your quilt top. The machine loads each layer of the quilt separately.
• Sit back, relax, and enjoy your spare time in any way you would like while I finish the tedious part of making a quilt.

• Remove all excess threads from the back of your quilt top. These can show through on the finished product.
• Iron seams so that the quilt top will lay flat during the quilting process.
• Sew all the way around the edges of your quilt top to prevent seams from separating due to stretching on the quilting frame.
• Remove selvages. These shrink and react to being quilted differently then the rest of your quilt top and can negatively affect the look of your finished quilt.
• Bed sheets are not recommended as backing for quilts because they prevent needle penetration and can cause skipped stitches.
• Mark the top of your quilt top and backing so that I know which way is up, if it applies.
• While I do not require the batting and backing to be larger then the quilt top, please understand that once mounted and quilted there may be areas around the edges of your quilt where the batting or backing is actually smaller then the quilt top.
