Windward was wonderful to work with !! They assisted in finishing a quilt my mother had started and not finished before her passing. From finishing the quilt to selecting backing, stitching etc the communication was timely, clear and helpful. And I Love the quilt !!!! Would ask for their help again in a heartbeat. Thank you Windward !!!!

Michele made us a really nice quilt as a fundraiser for our preschool. She was very responsive and professional and made us the cutest quilt! Very good value for price.

I will admit I was leery as this was my first quilt top and I really didn’t know what I was doing, but I sent all the materials to Windward and she just did an amazing job and I’m very grateful and thankful and I love it and I’m about to ask her if I can send another one to her thank you so much — and she answered all my questions responded in a timely fashion because I had a lot of questions because I didn’t know what I was doing, and I am so pleased with my quilt -

I cannot say enough wonderful things about my experience with Michele of Windward Quilting. Not only did she do a beautiful, beautiful job, but she did it INCREDIBLY fast, she communicated/responded quickly and regularly, and even arranged to have my embroidery work done by someone else to bring my vision/idea to life. This was gifted to a retiring kindergarten teacher; and it was a very special, emotional, meaningful gift that wouldn't have been possible had I not found this app and Windward Quilting.

FAQs

What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
I mainly do the final long arm quilting (putting the quilt "sandwich" together). The cost is by the square inch. .02 for simple design, .03 for more complex, and .04 for custom designs. I do also make memory and tee-shirt quilts.
What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
I schedule an appointment if the customer is in the vicinity (rhode Island). Otherwise, I try to discuss the design process over email or zoom
What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I am a certified APQS Long Arm Quilter, sales rep and service technician. I not only use their equipment, I'm trained and certified to sell and service them. I have over 10 years experience piecing and quilting.
