Quilt Top

- Make sure all seams are secure.
- Indicate which edge is the top edge with a safety pin.
- DO NOT add any embellishments prior to quilt. ( Baste down any flanges or prairie points)

Edge to Edge Quilting Explained
- Edge to edge quilting is a continuous line design worked from one edge of the quilt to the other and repeated from the top to the bottom of the quilt
- The design of your piecing is not used as a guide in the placement of quilting patterns with edge to edge this is only accomodated in Custom Quilting.
*Do not spray baste the three layers together*
All seams must be secure as the layers of the quilt will be under tension on the Long Arm frame.
