New Year, New Quilts: Clearing Your 2026 Quilt Pile

You have put in countless hours pouring your heart and soul into selecting beautiful fabrics, precision-cutting each piece, and sewing your quilt top with care. It’s been folded, moved around, and admired by many, but now it's time for the exciting grand finale!

 
What better way to kick off the new year than by revitalizing your craft room and starting fresh? If you’re eager to transform those "Works in Progress" (WIPs) into cherished heirlooms, Missouri Star’s Mail-In Machine Quilting Services are here to support you in crossing that finish line with confidence.

 
Accelerate Your Journey with Our Priority Service Upgrade!


Whether you have an upcoming deadline or simply want to wrap up your quilt sooner to dive into your next creative endeavor, our Priority Service upgrade is just what you need. With this option, you can rest assured that your quilting will be completed within 7 business days from the moment it arrives in Hamilton, MO. (A friendly tip: You’ll receive an email confirming when we receive your quilt, which starts the countdown!)


Do keep in mind that this 7-day turnaround is specifically for our edge-to-edge quilting services, based on business days (Monday through Friday), and it doesn’t include holidays or any add-on services like binding or delivery time. The clock starts ticking once your quilt is checked in and added to our quilting queue in Hamilton.

 
Celebrate Valentine’s Day with Love!


With Valentine’s Day just around the corner—and don’t forget about Galentine’s Day on February 13!—it’s the perfect time to create something special. Regardless of how you choose to celebrate, we have a variety of stunning patterns that you’re sure to adore. Make sure to select the Priority upgrade while ordering to ensure your quilt top is finished within 7 business days!

 

 


Our Valentine’s-themed value patterns, starting at just 3¢ per square inch, include delightful options like Affection, Heart Blossoms, and Large Hearts. If you’re looking to make a statement, consider upgrading to a deluxe pattern for an impressive finish! These intricate designs require additional time and thread, costing an additional ¼¢ per square inch, and include romantic selections like Hearts & Loops, Rainbow Hearts, Simply Roses, or Just Roses.
