I don't LA, but I do sell quilts built to customer specs. I do have a pre-printed work sheet that I use to get answers to every question I will need to build the quilt. I leave nothing to chance....that way there are no surprises for the customer or me. It just helps everyone involved. I have taken quilts to be long arm quilted and we went through the same process. I got a copy and she kept one pinned to the top. She was a very busy lady and it was to ensure that she didn't forget any necessary details.
