Quilts
I make beautiful bespoke heirloom-quality quilts, which are totally unique, and tailored to your specifications. I can add names and dates, favourite colours and fabrics, match your decor, use clothes that carry special memories, or applique on that little something to make it extra special! Each quilt is designed after consultation with the client. A deposit will be required before the design process starts.
Sizes: I can make any size requested, including play mat, single or double bed, right up to a super king size. For children I normally make cotbed-sized quilts. These are 45 x 60″/ 115x150cm, which makes it an ideal size for bedtime, travel, camping or on the sofa. These are big enough to cover your child completely until they are about aged five and soft enough to use from when they are a baby.
Fabric: My quilts are lovingly handcrafted from pure soft cotton/ linen, and appliqued and patchworked with beautiful designer fabrics. All quilts are gently laundered upon completion. They are machine stitched for strength and double bound (a specialist quilting term, trust me, it makes the edge very strong) and will be a wonderful heirloom for many decades to come.
Care: You should wash your quilt on the cool cycle and ideally line dry it (although I tumble dry mine and they are fine).

Quilt finishing
Made a quilt top and realised you are now stuck? machine not big enough to make a quilt from the top? Or do you just want to get on with creating more quilt tops and leave the rest to someone else? You are not alone! I have a high end quilting machine and a quilting frame which turns my machine in to a long arm machine. With limitations, it cannot be programmed, so for US style quilting you will need to contact a long arm quilting company. But I can turn any quilt top in to a quilt with straight line, free motion or any other hand created stitching that works for your quilt. I can machine or hand bind your quilt and supply any wadding and backing you desire. Prices are worked out on a quilt by quilt basis, I charge £25/ hour plus materials, contact me here for a bespoke quote. I can often squeeze these projects in so even if you have a tight deadline, try me! My most recent quilt finish got done in 3 days from delivery of the top and backing! Pls note I charge for wadding, backing, binding, and basting so the more of this you supply the less I have to charge you. For basting I recommend a spray baste, I cannot work with pins/ safety pins so if you cannot spray baste it I will do so for you.
