We also have NZ’s largest selection of wide backer fabrics (more than 300 in stock) and a variety of quality batting to choose from.
Our machines can stitch quilts up to 125” (3.2m) in width. Backing and batting needs to be at least 3 to 4” wider on all four sides than your quilt top. There is no need for you to pin or tack your quilt. Please ensure the top and backing are square and that there is no extra fabric in your borders.
We can courier your quilt back to you if you want to post it down to us, just include a note of what you would like quilted with your contact details.
