Christmas Quilts 2022

Longarm quilting,

It’s that time of year again! The 2022 Christmas quilt deadline is December 6, so call now to make your appointment to drop off your top.

Even if you’re still piecing, make your appointment to drop off your top so it’s wrapped and ready for Christmas.

Burlington Electric Quilters will be closed on:

  • Closed on December 24, 25 and 26, 2022 (Saturday through Monday)
  • Closed at noon on December 31
  • Closed on January 1 and 2, 2023

While you’re at it, hint that you’ve got a wonderful idea what they can get you for a gift 🙂

Burlington Electric Quilters has gift cards that can be used on quilting services, studio rentals and batting. Available in the amount that fits your beloved’s budget, these gift cards turn works in progress into finished objects (aka WIPS into FOs).

Speaking of FOs, take a peek a couple of Christmas quilts Louise made that are currently for sale at Burlington Electric Quilters..

  • batik quilt with stain glass blocks with green border
  • Christmas wall quilt with gold, red and green print fabric

2021 Holiday Deadline

You’re busy piecing and stitching those borders. Hurry up! Quilt tops for holiday gift giving should be at Burlington Electric Quilters by November 24, 2021. Louise knows you have good intentions and she wants to help make it happen. So, make your appointment now to choose your longarm quilting pattern and thread colors. Contact Louise and then you can get back to your sewing machine.

When your appointment time comes, what do you need to bring? Your top, the quilt back and ideas of quilting motifs that strike your fancy. If you already have batting, bring that, too. If not, Burlington Electric Quilters sells batting by the inch. You can also check out our handy guide to preparing your quilt for longarm quilting. A top that’s pressed and squared quilts well and with no delays. Don’t forget that your back should be 10″ longer and wider than your quilt top.

If you plan to rent a longarm machine to quilt your top, it’s also a good idea to reserve that time now.

And, if you’re making a holiday list, don’t forget that Burlington Electric Quilters has gift certificates!
