*Welcome to Tranquil Quilting*
Thank you for choosing my machine quilting service. All of my quilting is hand guided in a non pet/ smoking environment. Machine quilting is more durable than hand quilting and will not rip out or tear with normal laundering and use. You may choose - One of the many overall patterns to be applied to your quilt or custom work is available. Overall patterns are rows of continuous line quilting which cross the width of the quilt without regard to the quilt design. Custom work would be insets or design work to enhance an existing pattern. The custom category includes, straight lines, crosshatching, grid work and stitch in the ditch, these options are the most difficult, and time consuming. If you are currently working on a quilt and know when you must have it quilted, please give me as much advance notice as possible-I do require a rush fee. I normally have a 1-2 week turn-around time. I also offer a "I'm a" Quilters Card. This card entitles you to have your 6th quilt quilted with an overall pattern for 1/2 price.Please feel free to print a copy of my brochure from button at the top of the page. Please go to the "Prices" page and you will find a price guide to help you estimate the charges for your quilt.All new clients get $5.00 taken off their first quilting price. I baste around the entire edge of the quilt. I have a Poly-down batting (nice and light but shows great pattern definition.), and a cotton avaiable in the shop both at $6.00 a yard. I have added 2 new great links on the "links page". You can contact me thru my email- TranqQuilt@hotmail.com or call 517-740-1276

My Projects etc- Above is a quilt I just finished Dresden Plate using a template for the blades..and freehand viney leafs thru out the blocks!

Custom Emb.Quilt Labels- Here's a custom quilt label I made for a quilt for our "Granddaughter". Many fonts and thread colors!!We can do many fonts and any colors!!
A question I have been asked many times..I do baste around your entire quilt for you..and I charge .02-.03 cents a inch for custom work, depending on the amount of quilting..since I am new it is very time consuming to do a good job!! This site is a work in progress..my picture page is filling up so fast!! I would love to link some of you up to my site-email me!! Also my husband is a carpenter and a very handy guy..he will make custom quilt stands and wall holders for anyone interested..and he "SHARPENS" scissors!! Bring them in and for $6.00 a pair they will be like new again!! He can also make wider tops for our ironing boards and cutting tables to suit your sewing room needs!! Are you a blogger?? Some of us are..check out the links!! I want everyone who is interested on getting a site of any type up and going to contact the gal who is helping me on this one. Caitlin Newberry..I have known her for many years. She is a college student who is very creative..her link is at the bottom of this page..great to work with and very $reasomable$..I recommend her highly!!
