Beach Baby Quilts is now offering baby quilts and lap quilts that are machine-quilted as well as our usual "hand-tied" quilts.

Quilting is the stitching that holds the three layers of a "quilt sandwich" together, while forming a decorative design. Machine quilting produces evenly spaced and sized stitches, and can be done a lot faster than hand quilting. This is the reason why we can offer quilted products at reasonable prices.

We've gotten the best results using a thin, lightweight cotton batting between the quilt top and the backing. We use what is called a "fill" style of quilting, which ignores the seam lines of the quilt.

For some quilts, we use an "all over" design, such as waves, flowers or clamshells. For others, a "meandering" design is more appropriate. This quilting does not follow a design but is done "free hand," in random curved lines and swirls.
