Consultation
Getting to know you is the best part of the process. A designer will measure your graphics determining the finished quilt dimensions and budget for your Mosaic Quilt. We will also guide you through border and backing fabric selection and stitching style options.
Trim
Each shirt is individually trimmed based on the size of the graphic using our exclusive template system. All graphics are used, unless noted. No graphic is too large or too small. Any adjustments or repairs are made at this time.
Mapping
Layout specialists, using our computer program, create a map based on color arrangement and pattern placement. The map is the foundation of your Mosaic Quilt and ensures that your finished quilt is visually balanced, showcasing your graphics.
Layout
Your trimmed graphics are placed on a large assembly table as indicated by the corresponding map. The layout specialists then reevaluate, any adjustments are made, and a final approval is given by the designers to proceed with assembly.
Assembly
Our award winning sewists measure, pin, and stitch the trimmed graphics together, one by one. Each seam must be accurately stitched, not only for visual perfection, but also ensuring that your quilt will withstand a lifetime of use.
Border
Borders have a dual purpose. Functionally, they keep the assembled quilt top straight and square throughout the quilting process. Visually, they give your Mosaic Quilt a clean, colorful frame.
Quilting
After loading your quilt top into the longarm frame, our quilt artists expertly guide the quilting machine as they custom stitch across your quilt top. This process is what holds the three layers of your Mosaic Quilt together.
Binding
The binding provides the finishing touch around the outside edge of your quilt. We create bindings ‘on the fold’ which means you have two layers for strength and durability.
