The longarm quilting process combines traditional hand sewing and modern technology. Using the automated Handi Quilter Fusion program, your homemade quilt top is expertly attached to batting & backing to provide you with a beautiful, high quality quilt in a fraction of the time! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f3c0b0dbbab9973fe3a360d/1600491019886-S1KCGBQT42N927VV9RNK/Skribby%2BWebsite-14.jpg Home “The best quilter! Sandy made a memorial quilt for me and she did an amazing job. It’s beyond my wildest dreams and is now a family treasure.” – Ronda https://www.skribbysquilting.com/contact daily 0.75 2020-09-20 https://www.skribbysquilting.com/services daily 0.75 2023-01-12 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f3c0b0dbbab9973fe3a360d/1600565828533-2DQ68RO48R5QWZCSP72G/Skribby%252BWebsite-8.jpg Services - Quilt Top Preparation All the quilting is done by the computer-guide program on my Handi Quilter Fusion. Please make sure that your top is squared, trimmed of loose threads, and has been given a good pressing, make sure to remove any puckers and lopsidedness from the uneven fabric. Use a safety pin to mark the top center of the quilt. Do not pin or baste your quilt together as we will attach the three layers to different rollers on to the machine. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f3c0b0dbbab9973fe3a360d/1600565984322-PQ7J2ROOT2B9KHFZU2ZX/Skribby%2BWebsite-34.jpg Services - Quilt Backing Preparation Make sure the bottom fabric is pressed thoroughly ensure the large wrinkles are removed from being permanently quilted into the back. Important: It is necessary that the backing fabric is 5-8 inches larger than the top. The extra fabric holds the tension properly so the quilt will look its best. This simply means the backing fabric needs to be to be 5 or more inches larger on all sides of the quilt top. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f3c0b0dbbab9973fe3a360d/1600566905767-FZ8VL4PFXER6Y6PM88VN/jean-philippe-delberghe-k_0UI2MG5XQ-unsplash.jpg Services - Thread Like many machines, my longarm runs best with one or two certain brands of cone threads. Therefore you do not need to bring your own threads. I have many options of Glide threads and we can always order a specific color for you at no additional charge! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f3c0b0dbbab9973fe3a360d/1600566432598-TABW98P5PZL8R0S4FUZQ/Skribby%2BWebsite-3.jpg Services - Batting For premium results, please use high-quality batting.

He and I met right after high school, dated through college and the years after, were happily married for 26 years before we sadly lost him to cancer. Skribby always encouraged me in my quilting, even joining me on my many trips to fabric stores! So when I decided to start my longarm business, I wanted him to join me on this new chapter in my life! https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5f3c0b0dbbab9973fe3a360d/1600544627800-B8OKSI5K8696BVGX0SDP/Sandra23.jpg Meet the Team - Our Mascot!
