Instructions for preparing the quilt:
- Both backing and batting should be 4” larger than the top on all sides.
- The quilt top should be pressed with seams pressed as you stitch.
- If providing the backing, marked “right side” if there is a side preferred.
- Remove as many stray threads as possible.
- The top and back of the quilt should be “squared up” as best as possible.
- Remove selvages if backing is pieced.
- Be cautious of “wavy” borders — they will create puckers. If in doubt, ask for more info.
