Thank you for choosing Stitch Morgantown for your quilting services! We currently offer edge to edge pantograph designs that are quilted with staff guiding the longarm. That means there will be some variation in the design from row to row, unlike when it is quilted by a computerized longarm.
Pricing-
~Pricing is $.02/square inch for a simple pantograph. More detailed designs may incur an upcharge, but would be discussed prior accepting your quilt top to ensure all parties agree on charge.
~Thread-$8 per project
~Pantograph-in stock-FREE. Custom order-$8
~Seam backing $10/seam (if needed)
~Minimum charge for quilting service is $40 (excludes batting purchase)
~The $25 is the fee for return shipping to you and reserves your place in the queue upon arrival to the store.
Prepping Your Top and Back to Ship-
*To properly load and quilt your top, we ask that you add 8 inches to the width and length of your batting and backing fabric. This allows us 4 inches on all sides to get your quilt as square as possible and make sure the design goes out to cover the edges appropriately.
*Please have your quilt top and backing pressed so that no drastic creases are in them. Slight creasing can be smoothed out when loaded, but it needs to be pretty good starting out. Folds that come from shipping are not an issue and will come out when loaded.
*When you piece your backing (if needed) please make sure it is a “squared” piece. Meaning straight across on the 2 edges where you joined.
You are welcome to purchase back fabric from Stitch Morgantown and can choose from wideback options or any in stock print pending there is enough yardage available. There is an option to indicate backing purchase on the service request form above.
Pantograph Design-
~Standard Pantograph already in my collection-FREE-These are the designs shown here.
~New Pantograph Design-I primarily use Urban Elementz. To gauge the size of the design, underneath the title click the plus sign that says to click for more details and it will tell you the height of a single row. Custom sizes can be ordered if the scale needs to be different for your project and we can help you with that.
Batting
*You can provide your own batting or purchase batting to be used at the time you choose your pattern and thread. If you are shipping your quilt top, I would suggest that you purchase your batting from Stitch. We use Quilters Dream products. Pricing is visible even if your selection says sold out.
You will indicate your choice on the service request form above.
Thread-
Superior Threads So Fine-134 solid colors-50wt extra smooth all purpose polyester thread-This gives a matte finish.
Superior Threads Fantastico-118 variegated colors-40wt Premium High Strength Variegated Trilobal Polyester
Superior Threads Omni-V-over 70 variegated color blends-40 wt. 2-ply corespun (poly-wrapped poly core) thread. The beautiful, variegated colors have excellent color tone and change every inch. High strength and a subtle matte finish make OMNI-V an excellent quilting thread.
You will indicate your choice on the service request form above.
Shipping
I recommend using USPS Flat Rate Priority Box to ship your top & backing up to 20# and insurance of up to $100 (you can purchase add'l if needed) for $17.10 (pricing as of 5/28/2023.
I will ship back to you via USPS insured for the amount requested for a flat rate of $25, which you are paying now to indicate placement in queue once received. You will receive tracking information upon return shipment.
Turn Around Time
Our current turn around time from when we receive to shipping back out to you is 10-14 days. This will be updated based on quilts in queue. The intake form does have a space for date you need to receive by, but if you are going to be cutting it close based on turn around time, please message us directly before shipping.
Prior to starting your project, you will be sent a pic of your project, design, and thread choice that will require a response of confirmation to proceed with the service. You will be provided an estimate of total service at that time for review as well.
*Upon completion of the quilting, we will trim your quilt to the edge of the top unless you instruct us otherwise.
A final invoice will be emailed and will need to be paid in full prior to shipment of your project back to you.
If you have any other questions, please ask! We’d be happy to answer them for you!
