Geoff will be at work on our two industrial long arm quilting machines. Look our for bargains as we celebrate our 15th anniversary of providing our long arm machine quilting service to Toowoomba and region, and across the nation.

Time for UFOs to fly out the door.

It is time to get your unfinished quilts out of the cupboard and turn them into beautiful finished quilts.

As part of their 15th anniversary as the first long arm machine quilting service in the region, KoolKat has an offer you won’t want to miss.

The March Madness sale open now until March 29 is offering machine quilting at near half price.  There are even greater savings for bulk numbers of quilts.

KoolKat stocks quality wool/poly and 100% cotton wadding for your convenience.  

Also in stock is a range of competitively priced 100% cotton wide quilt backings. We return left over wadding and backing to you – many quilters find there is enough left over for binding.

Don’t like binding? – KoolKat offers a total service including complete binding (or single side, it is much easier to finish binding when the hard work of getting one side on a big quilt is already done for you).

Want to personalise the quilt? – why not order a unique embroidered quilt label that KoolKat will sew and quilt onto the back of your quilt.

Like to present the quilt in its own protective cover?

– KoolKat also offers a calico quilt bag for this purpose.

All this is topped off with our free delivery by post Australia-wide.

Go to the home page on our website, and download our latest newsletter which has the voucher you need for the March Madness special.

While you are there on the home page, download the easy to use order form which will answer your questions about what information you should include with your quilt.

Also on our website are machine quilting pattern catalogues, tips on quilting and how to get the best out of machine quilting, what other quilters say about us, and loads more.
