Pick your Quilting Pattern
Priority
Choose from these two Machine Quilting options:
Because some of our patterns are more complex than others and require more time and thread, those patterns are considered “deluxe” and cost an additional ¼ of a cent per square inch.
Select your pattern from our wide selection of edge to edge quilting patterns. These beautiful pantographs, also known as “pantos,” are stitched with precision on our Innova longarms.

Add on Backing
Priority
If you would like to order your backing from us, choose this option and we'll add it to your order. Otherwise, be sure to include your backing with your quilt top.
Please Note:
Please Note:
- Sending your own backing? It should be at least 4" larger than your top on all sides. For standard 42" width fabric, please sew your backing fabric together or purchase our back piecing services.
- For binding services using minky/cuddle fabric for backing, please send or purchase coordinating cotton fabric for binding.
- If you have purchased backing fabric in your shopping cart outside of this order form, contact customer service to avoid having it shipped to you.
- We cannot guarantee that patterned fabric will be matched at seams when sewing backing fabric pieces together.
- We make every attempt to center backing, but cannot guarantee that it will be perfectly centered after quilting due to shrinkage of the quilt top.

Helpful details
Common machine quilting questions.
What does the quilting service include?
Standard machine quilting includes edge-to-edge longarm quilting, batting, and standard thread options. You can choose from simple meanders, florals, feathers, seasonal designs, and other computerized stitch patterns.
How much backing do I need?
Your backing should be at least 4 inches larger than the quilt top on every side. Wide backing fabric is a helpful option when you want a smooth back without piecing seams.
When does the turnaround clock start?
Turnaround begins when your quilt arrives at Missouri Star in Hamilton. Binding, trimming, return shipping, and circumstances outside the quilting queue can add extra time.
Can Missouri Star finish the binding?
Yes. You can add machine or hand binding services during the order flow, or choose trimming if you prefer to finish the binding yourself at home.
Where do I mail my quilt?
Place your order paperwork in the box with your quilt top and backing, then mail it to:
Missouri Star Quilt Coc/o Machine Quilting
1005 South Hughes Street
Hamilton, MO 64644
