About Grandby's Quilts
Hi, I’m Grandby but please call me Barbara. My Grandchildren couldn’t say
“Grand Barbara” when they were little, so Grandby evolved. Thank you for
the time you are spending on my website. I specialize in machine quilting
that prized quilt top of yours, whether it be a new top or an antique top.
I also provide machine embroidered monograms, names and dates to your top
before it’s quilted, if so desired. The price for monogramming is $10 per
hoop, and I’ll monogram whatever will fit in the hoop. It will be in
script or block font. You choose. There are over 2000 embroidery
sew outs in my collection to embroider on your top if there’s an item in mind
you would like to include. Let’s say the quilt will be a present for a
fisherman, I can embroider a fishing-themed picture to the quilt somewhere.
Sew outs are priced individually and is rated by the size, number of color
thread changes and number of stitches in the pattern.
When you decide that I’m the one you want to quilt your new heirloom-to-be,
please email or call me. It would be my pleasure to present you with a
work of art that may even bring tears to your eyes. Tears of joy are
great! Grandby's Quilts specializes in custom
T-Shirt Quilts.
Create a one-of-a-kind quilt from your loved one's t-shirts or other clothing.
Imagine seeing all their favorite t-shirts pieced into a quilt fifty years from
now. It makes a wonderful gift and a treasure to last a lifetime.
Grandby's Quilts creates Photo Quilts
now! They've become very popular items. These very personal
creations are made from your own 5" x 7" (or smaller) photographs that is
copied to fabric and sewn into the top. Just think how reproductions of
those rare family pictures would look crafted into a Photo Quilt.
Your images can be sent to me or jpeg in an email. Originals are returned
unharmed, but I prefer a CD or jpeg so your cherished photos never have to
leave your home.
Grandby's Quilts features The Memory
Quilt - an heirloom in the making. Friends or family sign
the individual "bricks" with a special message that will later make up your
custom quilt! The Memory Quilt is a great way to preserve
your own memories of any special occasion and it makes a perfect, one-of-a-kind
gift. Give Memory Quilts to all those special people in your life
as wedding gifts, anniversary, graduations, retirement, birthday and Christmas
quilts. A personalized Memory Quilt is a priceless, quilted
memento that will also be treasured forever.
So take your time researching the site and if you have time, please feel
free to sign my guestbook. Your email address is not a requirement, but
helpful to me if you want to leave it. The guestbook acts as references
and testament to my work as an artist. Thanks!
