E-2-E Design – Hypnotic

Edge-to-Edge Quilting

I specialize in edge-to-edge (E-2-E) quilting with the hopes to soon offer semi-custom and custom quilting. E-2-E quilting is quilting a single design in a row from one edge of the quilt to the other, then repeating until the entire quilt is covered. Sometimes it is called an all-over design. The computerized Bernina stitches the E-2-E designs to perfection. 

“I remember the first time I saw a quilt quilted on a longarm machine. It was candy to my eyes and I couldn’t stop softly brushing my hands over the precision stitching. You know what I’m talking about, right?! And honestly, I still quilt a row or two and pause to take it all in. Your quilts are beautiful when they arrive. And when they leave, they leave with the icing on the top.“

Let’s Get Started!

Are you ready to have the icing added to your quilt top?

  • Local – If you are local, you’re welcome to drop off your quilt at my studio. Simply reserve your place in line by selecting and making a deposit for the E-2-E design of your choice online and contact me for an appointment. I am located in NW Lincoln (Fallbrook neighborhood in Lincoln, NE). 
  • Not-Local – If you do not live in the area, Simply reserve your place in line by selecting and making a deposit for the E-2-E design of your choice online, complete the “Order Form for Quilting Services” and ship your quilt to my studio.
  • Need Assistance – Not a problem, I love helping clients with design plans. Just drop me an email or give me a call. If you are local, we can set up an appointment to discuss your plan.


Note: When selecting the E-2-E design on the online shop, you are putting a $50 deposit down on your quilting service. Once the quilt is quilted, an invoice will be emailed for the total cost of the quilting service and any additional supplies or charges. The $50 deposit will go towards those fees. i.e. if the quilting service charge is $150, $50 is subtracted and your remaining balance would be $100.
 
Special request for an edge-to-edge design 
I get this request often. Provide me with specifics (picture, and if possible…design name, designer, website you saw it) and I will get back to you. The special request design fee starts at $10. The main websites I purchase designs from are Urban Elementz and Quilts Complete. There are oodles of others and you will see several of the designs repeated.
