Shipping Policy — Memory Quilts & Longarm Services

At Katybird Quilts, I understand that the clothing and fabric you send often carry deep personal meaning. Every package is handled with care and respect throughout the quilting process.

Sending Your Items

Customers are responsible for shipping their clothing, fabric, or quilt materials to Katybird Quilts.

Once your project is confirmed, I will provide detailed instructions for packaging and mailing your items safely.

I recommend:

  • Using a shipping service with tracking
  • Packaging items securely in a sealed bag or box
  • Keeping a record of your tracking information until your package arrives

Katybird Quilts is not responsible for packages lost or damaged during transit to my studio.


Turnaround Time

Memory quilt turnaround time is typically 4–6 weeks from the date your items are received in my studio.

Longarm Services turnaround time varies based on the type of service you request. Edge to Edge quilting design is usually 1-2 weeks. Custom designs, squaring, binding, and any other add on services require additional time.

Because each quilt is custom-made and created with care, turnaround times may occasionally vary depending on workload, holidays, or project complexity. If there are any significant delays, I will always keep you updated.


Return Shipping

Completed memory quilts are shipped back to you at no additional shipping charge. Longarm quilting services are shipped free of charge if your total order was above $100.

Your finished quilt will be carefully packaged and shipped with tracking information provided once it is on its way home to you.


Lost or Damaged Packages

Once a finished quilt has been shipped and accepted by the shipping carrier, Katybird Quilts is not responsible for shipping delays, lost packages, or damage caused during transit.

If an issue occurs during shipping, please contact the shipping carrier directly first. I am always happy to assist however I can.
