IT'S TIME!

NEXT STEPS IN your MEMORY QUILT making PROCESS

I’m so looking forward to working together!



Each quilt is one of a kind and made just for you.

Some people make decisions fast, others need time to think.

I don't want the process to add stress to your life.

I don't want you to ever feel rushed, or that you need to make a decision if you're not ready.

I say this now so that you remember that the timeframe is dictated by you and there's no expectation that you'll make decisions at any given pace.

I have 2 young kids and my life is splendidly chaotic. I get it. 

Let's enjoy this experience as much as we can with as little stress as possible.

STEP 1

Before we begin working together I want to make sure you know what I offer.

Go HERE to get a refresher on sizes, types of quilts I make and pricing for quilts.

STEP 2

Complete the form below and send it my way.

This is an investment. I don't want anyone to be surprised about the cost involved. Remember there may also be shipping fees, customs, and taxes depending on where you live.

STEP 3

You can start getting your clothes prepared!

Give your items a fresh launder. This ensures that they’re not only nice to work with, but also that no items with colours that will bleed (can happen with tie dyes or clothing that has been laundered).


Next you can organize your items into ‘magic’, 'must haves' and 'filler'. I do my best to include a bit of everything into your quilt(s), but this allows me to know what pieces should be highlighted, which are key and which can be used if needed.  

IF you don't have a lot of items, don't worry! We can use supplemental fabric to flush it out if needed. Each quilt is unique and made specifically to meet your vision.




If you're having more than one quilt made, divide clothes into which quilt they go into, and if you want some or all clothes in multiple quilts just write a little note and put them in their own bag in your box. 


If you have any questions please let me know and I'll be happy to help you out.


Once you're ready I'll let you know how to ship your items to me and we'll begin (those who live locally can arrange to drop off).

THIS IS YOUR QUILT. THIS IS YOUR EXPERIENCE.

I recognize how these items of clothing hold priceless memories for you.

I am incredibly grateful and honoured that you are trusting me to take care of and transform these pieces into something you can hold on to. 


As we move forward we'll finalize decisions on size, type, and design, backing fabric, binding and quilting.

One step at a time.

 

I look forward to working with you when you're ready to get started! 


Cheers,
