Products Re-Designed with an Artist’s touch and an Engineer’s  precision

Pat and Al Barry, have plenty of experience with sewing, quilting and quilting machines. Pat started Quilters Studio, LLC, which  focuses on professional longarm quilting services, quilting classes and lectures. (www.QuiltersStudiollc.com) Teaching led to machine installations and a special relationship with Quilt Center, a Gammill Quilting Systems dealer. (www.TheQuiltCenter.com) Pat has taught hundreds of people to use quilting machines.

All of this has enabled Pat and Al to gain unique insights into the needs of quilters.  They have listened carefully to quilters and watched them work. As a result, they are designing a number of products to make quilting tasks easier, more efficient – and more enjoyable.

Pat is the author of “ABCs of Longarm Quilting” (Krause Publications, ISBN-13:978-0896894549). The book is geared toward people who have recently purchased a quilting system or are considering one.

Al has developed “Al-A Cart,” a suite of furniture where each item can be customized to fit a quilter’s specific needs and space. (See the Products page for more information.)

The mission of By Design Quilting, LLC is to develop and sell sewing, quilting or crafting products, which are unique or have an obvious advantage over similar products on the market.  This is what we call ”Product Plus” and all our products have it. 

The vision of BDQ is to enable our customers to imagine and plan their ideal creative space and let us help them make it a reality.
