Backing Fabrics

I am currently building a stock of backing fabrics. If there is a specific backing fabric that you would like then please let me know and I will try to order it.

Wadding

I prefer, where possible, to support Australian products so I stock the Matilda’s Own range of waddings.

- 2.4 m wide is $26.50 per metre

- 3.1 m wide is $33.00 per metre

(Both available in 60% wool/40% polyester blend and 100% cotton).

Thread surcharge

King Tut and Signature variegated threads are divine but also very expensive.

A surcharge applies for quilts using these threads but please don't be put off by this fee as variegated threads can provide an added dimension and beauty to many quilts.

- 25 to 50 square feet $7.50

How to calculate the cost of your quilt

Measure the length and width of your quilt top in inches.
Multiply these two amounts (length x width).
Divide this amount by 144 (this calculates the total quilt area in square feet).
Multiply this amount by the square foot rate and then add any additional costs (thread, turning, binding etc).
For example, a square quilt measuring 85 inches using an edge-to-edge (e2e) design would be:

85 x 85 = 7225

7225/144 = 50.17 square feet

50.17 x $4.80 = $240.82

How to prepare your quilt

If you are supplying the backing and wadding, they need to be at least 4 inches larger on all sides. Add 8 inches to the length and width dimensions of your quilt to calculate the size required for the backing and wadding.
All edges of the quilt and backing should be straight and square to ensure they roll evenly on Lizzie's rollers.
Iron the quilt top and backing. Make sure all seams are secured and flat. Trim excess threads (especially dark threads on light fabrics).
Make sure that your borders lie flat. Wavy borders and borders that are tight can result in a puckered finish over the quilt top.
Do not pin the three layers together.

Please note:

All care is taken to provide a good finish and some fullness in the quilt top can be accommodated. Excessive fullness may result in some rippling and puckering in the finished quilt..
