Longarm Quilting

I love making quilts, and the quilting is by far, my favorite part of the process. I’ve always said that ‘the piecing’ is just something that I had to do in order to get to the “fun” part. The quilting! Trust me when I tell you, I love love love longarm quilting.

When you bring your quilt to me, I treat it just like I would one of my own, with love. All quilts are done
on my 26” Gammill Statler Stitcher. She sits on a 14’ frame so I can accommodate any size quilt.

I have over 800 longarm quilting patterns so you can choose the perfect design to enhance your quilt while meeting your budget. Pick your own thread color too! You can choose the just the right  shade to coordinate with your quilt. If you need help choosing a longarm quilting pattern I can suggest patterns that I think would work best with your quilt top. If over 800 patterns seems a bit overwhelming I am happy to narrow it down for you, and email you 3-5 longarm quilting patterns for you to choose from. I would choose 3-5 longarm quilting patterns that I think would enhance your quilt top and then you can pick the one that we use.

If you don’t see a longarm quilting pattern that you like, or you want one that uniquely matches your quilt, then I can
custom digitize one for you.  ($25 additional fee for custom digitizing)

I am located in Terrebonne, Oregon. You can either drop off your quilt to me or I can meet you someplace to pick it up. I also accept quilts by mail, so if you do not live locally I can still quilt for you…call or email me for shipping details. Call today for an appointment to drop off your quilt: 541-233-7421
