    Sorry it takes 24 hours approx. Mine was done the next day. It really is worth the wait. I can say that my tension issues were resloved once I figured out the thread. One thine to make sure when quilting is that your stitch length is set to zero and just keep at it. Make sure your foot is down. (dont ask it made for a good laugh though) just go slow and increase speed until you are comfortable. If you are getting eyelashes the top tension needs to be tighter. on top the the bottom. I hope this helps.
