Preparing your quilt top for the Long Arm Quilter

Tip – Batting should be 2 – 3“ larger on all sides of the quilt and backing fabric 4 – 6” larger on all sides of quilt.  Example quilt top 93” x 93”    Batting should be 97” x 97” and the backing should be 108” x 108”.    This gives room to hold your quilt tight when being quilted.

Iron your top and back or else your long armer may have a charge for doing this.

Make sure your backing is in one piece.  Many Long Arm quilters charge $20 minimum per sewing line or cutting line for preparation prior to being able to put your top, backing and batting on the long arm machine.
