Your Quilt Options

Your quilter’s fee includes your choice of quilt pattern (and foundation papers if appropriate) as well as color design assistance and detailed fabric requirements.   I will also assist you in considering possible expansion or customization options.  Obtaining your fabrics will be your responsbility, but I will offer custom fabric kits and any supplemental expansion or border patterns for an additional charge.   I will be in touch soon after you register to discuss your options.  Patterns, fabric requirements and any kits will be shipped as soon as full payment is recieved.   All pattern decisions and fabric kit orders need to be placed by January 31, 2028 to ensure delivery prior to our April 1, 2028 departure.

Here’s an overview of your quilt options.  You’ll note there are a variety of  techniques including; traditional piecing, applique,  and foundation paper piecing.  I’m prepared to help you enjoy and succeed whatever pattern you chose!
