About Us
Our Story
Pretty threads is a home based veteran-owned business. Many quilters admired my quilts, so I began quilting for others years ago. Let me help bring your quilt top to life. Stitching can do alot to add movement and flow that will catch your eye. Beginners are always welcome! Good stitching can enhance any quilt. It can be selecting a pantograph pattern or complex designs and custom stitching.

Just Sue with her amazing skills and her imagination.
CUSTOM QUILTING - BEGINS .04 PER INCH
Individual block designs and additional border work.
HEIRLOOM BEGINS .05 PER INCH
This involves stitch in the ditch around blocks (helps keep your treasure looking good years later). This is where Sue designs quilting for your quilt. Complex border designs, a lot of time with rulers and many thread changes are usually involved to get a unique look for your individual quilt to make it stand out.

BACKING & BATTING
Backing - Must be a minimum of 4 inches larger on all sides. If you have a pieced back, cut out the selvedge in your seam. If you prefer us to piece your backing its $10 a seam.
Batting - We Carry Warm & Natural, Hobbs 80/20, Winline bamboo (recommended for RV quilts). We also have wool. You are welcome to bring your own but it must be a packaged batting . Remember the batting you choose can also help to enhance your finished quilt. I am happy to help recommend a batting for your quilt.
