When I got home I found they were sending used poly tablecloths, used poly sheets for backing. Twol of the quilts had construction issues that were difficult to fix. I was very dissapointed since I quilt for people who produce beautiful quilts and my stitching is prized locally and wins prizes. I just quilted them, returned them and told the woman that I didn't think I was a good fit for their group.
In your case, I recommend you tell your contact person that the quilt was done with a machine that appears to need upper thread tension adjustments since it is loose on the back side. If it is loose, the stitching is going to be easy to remove. Areas where she has gone over and over, not so easy.
If you are interested in solving this problem and willing to send it to me. I will fix it for you. It cannot take priority to paying jobs which are very heavy at this time of the year, but I suspect that a week or so of evenings of ripping should allow me to catch up with my current quilting load and work a space in the schedule for requilting it.
Do you have allergies - I have a cat and 2 dogs.
