LAKESIDE CUSTOM MACHINE QUILTING
Quilt Preparation:
Backing:
  • The backing should be at least 6 inches longer and 6 inches wider than your
    quilt top.
  • If applicable, mark the top of your backing by pinning a small piece of paper
    labeled "Top".
Batting:
If you are supplying your own batting, please make sure it is at least 6 inches longer
and 6 inches wider than the quilt top.
Quilt Top:
  • Press the quilt top.  If the quilt top is not pressed, your quilt will have puckers
    and/or wrinkles.
  • Trim and secure all loose threads from the back of your quilt top.  Loose
    threads may show through the lighter colors of your quilt.
  • Make sure your seam allowances are pressed properly.
  • If applicable, mark the top of your quilt by pinning a small piece of paper
    labeled "Top".
  • Do not baste or pin the quilt layers together.
