General Terms (All Services)

Approval of Additional Work

We never do work beyond what you booked without your approval. If we find something that needs attention, we'll contact you with a quote and send an estimate for online approval before continuing.

Payment & Release

Your item is released (picked up or shipped) once your invoice is paid in full.

Pickup & Storage

When your item is ready, we'll email your invoice and a ready notice. Local pickups are free for 7 days after the ready notice. A storage fee of $5 per day begins on day 8. Mail-in longarm clients have 30 days to pay before the storage fee begins (see Longarm Quilting below). We send reminders on days 7, 14, and 30. The day-30 reminder is sent by certified mail.

Extended Storage by Arrangement

Traveling or need more time? Contact us before drop-off, and we'll agree in writing on an extended pickup date. Storage fees won't apply until after that date.

UNCLAIMED ITEMS — IMPORTANT NOTICE

PER SOUTH CAROLINA CODE § 29-15-90, ANY MACHINE, QUILT, OR OTHER ITEM NOT PICKED UP AND PAID IN FULL WITHIN SIX (6) MONTHS AFTER THE READY NOTICE (OR AFTER AN AGREED EXTENDED-STORAGE PICKUP DATE) MAY BE SOLD, DONATED, OR RECYCLED BY STITCHWELL QUILT CO TO RECOVER CHARGES.

Condition on Arrival

We photograph items when they arrive. If we notice existing damage, wear, holes, or other concerns, we'll contact you before beginning work. We are not responsible for conditions that existed before your item came to us.

Our Studio

Services are performed in our smoke-free, cat-free home studio in Columbia, SC. Dogs live in the home.

Machine Service

Services & Pricing

• Machine Spa Day (clean, oil, adjust): Mechanical $110 · Computerized $135 · Serger $140 · Longarm in our studio $299 · Longarm in your home or studio $399 plus travel
• Machine Medic Visit (diagnostics and repair): added to your Machine Spa Day at $85 per hour, 1-hour minimum, plus parts

We do not currently accept embroidery machines or machines installed in sewing cabinets.

Booking Fee

A $45 non-refundable booking fee reserves your service week and is credited toward your Machine Spa Day total. Service slots are limited each week.

Drop-Off

We'll contact you to schedule a drop-off time Thursday through Saturday before your service week. The studio address is shared after booking. Please bring your foot pedal, power cord, bobbin case, zigzag (or primary) presser foot and any presser feet you'd like checked.

Turnaround

Service is typically completed within 1–2 weeks from the start of your scheduled week. If parts need to be ordered, this may take longer. You can check your service status any time by logging in to your account at stitchwellquiltco.com.

Estimates & Your Options

If we find a needed repair, we'll call you with an estimate before we begin your Spa Day. You can choose to:

• Approve the repair: Spa Day + $85/hour repair labor (1-hour minimum) + parts
• Skip the repair, keep your Spa Day: standard Spa Day fee, with the declined repair noted on your invoice (only if your machine runs)
• Decline all service: you owe only the $45 booking fee, and your machine is returned as-is

If a problem turns up after your Spa Day has started, we'll still call you before any repair work, and the Spa Day fee applies.

On-Site Longarm Service Travel

Travel within 15 miles is included. From 16 to 75 miles, add a $125 flat fee. Beyond 75 miles, add $125 plus $1.00 per mile.

Cancellation & Rescheduling

The booking fee is non-refundable. With at least 7 days' notice, you may move your booking to another available week one time at no charge.

Limitations

We are not responsible for failure of parts you chose not to replace, accessories not recorded at drop-off, or lost stored settings or stitch memory on computerized machines.

Warranty

• Machine Spa Day: 30-day limited labor warranty on the adjustments made during your service.
• Machine Medic Visit (repairs): 90-day limited labor warranty on the repair performed.

Both warranties begin on your pickup date and cover the labor to correct the same issue we serviced or repaired. Replacement parts are covered by the manufacturer's warranty, where one applies.

Not covered: new or unrelated issues; repairs you declined; damage from drops, impact, or transport; timing or other problems caused by bent or incorrect needles, thread jams, or misuse; machines opened or worked on by you or anyone else after our service; and normal wear.

Warranty claims: Call or email us to talk through the issue, and we'll schedule a time to take care of it. For in-home or in-studio longarm warranty visits, standard travel fees apply.

Longarm Quilting

Pricing

Longarm quilting is billed by the square inch, with a $50 order minimum (excluding batting). Batting, optional services, return shipping, and sales tax are billed separately. See our Longarm Services FAQ for current rates.

Preparing Your Quilt

Quilt tops, backings, and batting must meet the requirements in our Longarm Services FAQ, including backing and batting at least 4" larger than the top on all sides, backing seams pressed open, and selvedges trimmed. If something arrives that doesn't meet these requirements, we'll contact you to discuss options before quilting.

Estimate & Approval

After your quilt arrives and is measured, we'll send an estimate. Quilting begins once you approve it.

Turnaround

Typical turnaround is 3–4 weeks from approval of your estimate.

Payment

• Local clients: Payment is due at pickup.
• Mail-in clients: Your final invoice, including return shipping, is due within 30 days. Your quilt ships the next business day after payment. Storage fees begin on day 31 if the invoice remains unpaid.

Return Shipping & Insurance

Return shipping includes $100 of insurance. If you'd like additional coverage, let us know before your final invoice is sent, and we'll add it to your shipping charges.

Fabric & Piecing

Longarm quilting puts tension on a quilt top. We'll handle your quilt with care, but we are not responsible for fabric shrinkage, color bleeding, or seams that separate because of fabric quality or piecing.
