Mail-In Longarm Quilting From Anywhere in the U.S.
Carol and Leo Maynard finish pieced quilt tops on a Bernina Q24 longarm from their studio in Denver, PA — every quilt arrives by mail and is shipped back insured. Whether it's a baby quilt for your first grandchild, a memory quilt stitched from a loved one's shirts, or a competition-grade king with custom feathers, the workflow is the same: send it in, get it back beautifully finished.
What is Longarm Quilting?
A longarm is an industrial-frame quilting machine where the quilt sandwich (top + batting + backing) is loaded onto a 12-foot frame and the sewing head moves over it on rails. That's the opposite of a domestic sewing machine, where the fabric moves under a stationary needle. The result: even tension, consistent stitch quality across an entire king-size quilt, and design freedom that simply isn't possible at a home machine.
