 Longarm Quilting Services


Picture
Current turnaround time: 3 weeks
Ready to give your quilt the beautiful finish it deserves? I would love to help! At my cozy sewing studio in Mt. Vernon, Iowa, I offer computer-guided, edge-to-edge longarm quilting using my Nolting longarm and Quiltmagine system. This allows me to provide smooth, consistent stitches and a polished finish every time.
You’re welcome to browse a variety of pantograph designs on my longarm quilting page and choose the style that best complements your quilt. I can quilt projects of all sizes—from small table runners to quilts up to 110 inches wide. Pricing begins at $0.02 per square inch, with a $65 minimum.
Before dropping off your quilt, please take a moment to look over the guidelines and tips on the longarm quilting page—they’ll help ensure the best possible results.
I truly look forward to helping you bring your quilt to life and celebrating your beautiful work with you!

Kid's Sewing Classes


Picture
At Blooming Acres Sewing Studio, we love helping young makers discover the joy of sewing! We offer a variety of kid-friendly opportunities—including Kid’s Sewing Classes, Wednesday Sewing Club, Summer Sewing Camps, and Private Lessons—designed especially for ages 8 to 16.
All sewing machines, tools, and materials are provided, so your kiddo can simply come ready to learn and create. We start everyone with Intro to Sewing, which builds a strong foundation before moving on to other classes. From there, students follow our curriculum-based program, building their skills as they complete fun, skill appropriate projects at each level.
We would love to welcome your kiddo into our sewing community—whether they’re just starting out or excited to grow their sewing skills even further!
