Frequently Asked Questions

What if I don't have a particular photograph?
I can create a general wallhanging, a picture set, or a custom wallhanging.
A general fabric wallhanging is an impression of one part of nature. It does not match a photograph that I have here. A quilted photo
wallhanging is one that corresponds with one of my photographs. The wallhanging and framed photo of the original landscape are sold
as a set. A custom wallhanging is one that I create from a photo you provide.

Could my fabric picture be framed instead?
Yes. A hanging that is to be framed would not have batting (the “sandwich”
or inside material) or a fabric backing.

Who provides the frame?
If you already have a frame, the quilted picture can be created to fit the
size of your frame. If you want it matted by me, please indicate that when
you make your order. Cost of matting is an additional charge.

How do I hang it up?
There are 3 methods for hanging – rings on the back fabric, a material
sleeve on the back fabric, or material tabs that are visible when viewing
the hanging. A dowel is used with each of these methods; dowels can be
found at most any shop that sells art or craft supplies. Custom orders may
indicate their preference on the order form.

How long will it take to make a custom wallhanging?
Usually a custom wallhanging will be completed within 4 to 6 weeks. The
consideration factors are the complexity of the design and whether or not
I have the comparable fabrics already here.

Can you do a wallhanging of my ……?
I do wallhangings of landscape scenes, buildings/structures, animals, and children's drawings. At this point, I make silhouettes of
people or outlines of their faces. If in doubt, email me the photo anyway. If I am unable to do the design, I will let you know.

How much does a wallhanging cost?
The cost of each wallhanging depends upon the complexity of the image, the size of the wallhanging, and the fabric. As of April 2009,
the price based on a simple image is:

Under 14" -- $50
14" to under 16" -- $55
16" to under 18" -- $60
18" to under 20" -- $70
20" to under 22" -- $80
22" and over -- inquire
The cost of houses and additional animals (for example, 2 dogs in a wallhanging) are $8 - $15 more depending on design.

Measurement is of the largest side of the wallhanging and includes the border, if applicable. Significant revisions will have an extra
charge. Price does not include NYS sales tax or shipping/ handling. A deposit of 50% is required along with the order form. If your
custom fabric creation requires an additional charge due to the complexity of the image, I will notify you by email or phone prior to
beginning your piece.

How do I pay for this?
I can accept credit cards, personal checks, cashier’s checks, money orders, or Paypal- direct bank transfer. A personal check must
clear the bank before the item will be shipped.

Credit cards: The Quilted Jardin is able to accept payment from Mastercard, Visa, Discover, and American Express. Two ways: 1)
call and give me your credit card information. Approval can happen while you are on the phone. 2) An invoice can be sent to you by
email. You will be directed to a secure site for payment. Once payment has been confirmed, your item will be created and/or shipped.

Custom Orders

Turn your favorite photo memory into a work of art!

The fabric wallhanging quilt I design is an interpretation of your
picture. It will be recognizable as the original photograph but will
not be an exact replica. My creation process includes at least
one pictoral e-mail for design comments, such as "the mountain
on the left needs to have a a slightly higher slope." It is important
to me that this pictoral quilt brings a similar feeling to you as your
special memory or place.

If you are ready to order, go ahead and do so through my online

document
or a pdf document.
