Following are a few things that you need to accomplish to help in the finishing of your quilt:

Please make backing fabric 4” larger on all sides than the quilt top.

Please press top and backing.

2 If your backing is pieced, please trim the selvages. They will not stretch as much as the rest of your fabric and could distort the piece. b5

Properly applied borders are essential for a square, flat quilt. Please reference my website for instructions on applying borders correctly.

2

Please trim all loose threads. These threads will show through to the top and look like “varicous veins” after quilting.

b6 Please be prepared to discuss quilting ideas. Pictures are welcome. Please mention any designs or motifs you particularly like or dislike.
