In my opinion, that's unacceptable work. And I doubt sending it back to her would result in anything better. I'm sorry you got ripped on that one!!! If you want and can, if you were to do a tight stippling on the outside of the star but within the block, it would make the star pop..... Good luck

HI,
Well I can tell you from experience on this side of the coin...a new LAQ and just customer service in general (I have had dissatisfied customers myself)...that I want to know and try to fix any issues that the quilter has. If it is something fixable...and that is something that is fixable. She can easily pin that on again and add more quilting and I really think she won't mind....I think it is just a matter of honesty and if your other two quilts were done well...you should give her a chance...we can't fix what we don't know. Just my two cents worth. Quilting is so subjective ....so it's hard to gauge sometimes. |

If you don't tell her that you don't like it..how would she know you didn't. And she may do the same for another customer...I'd much rather be told myself

did you talk to her ahead of time and tell her what you wanted? or did you tell her to do what she thought was best? if you chose the second option i don't think you should be (confrontational) she did what you told her to do- if you did talk to her about specifics and she did not do what you requested by all means give her a call- and ask her to re-quilt it.
possibly -- lesson to be learned-- when you take a quilt to the long arm quilter you need to discuss the quilt with the quilter- let them know what you have in mind--even choose designs- if you drop off your quilt and say "do what every you think is best" you will get what the quilter 'thought' was best- it might not be anything close to what you thought would be best.--- long-armer's are quilters--not mind readers--if you don't tell us, we have no way to know |
