Meet Laura

Hi, I’m Laura, the quilter behind CottonObsession.

I am a longarm quilter based in Bellingham, Washington, serving quilt makers throughout Whatcom, Skagit, and Island counties. Local drop-off is available by arrangement, and mail-in quilting projects are welcome from farther away.

I love the moment when quilting transforms a finished quilt top into something ready to use, gift, display, and enjoy for years to come. My goal is to provide a thoughtful finishing step that complements your piecing and helps your quilt become the finished work you envisioned.

My approach to longarm quilting

I work on a Bernina Q24 longarm machine and specialize in clean, edge-to-edge quilting designs. Edge-to-edge quilting adds texture and movement across the quilt while allowing your fabric choices and piecing to remain the focus.

Before I begin, I will work with you to confirm your quilt’s measurements, quilting design, thread, batting needs, timeline, and delivery or return method. I want the process to feel clear and comfortable, whether you are dropping off a project locally or sending a quilt by mail.

More than quilting

CottonObsession is also a small handmade shop. Alongside longarm quilting services, I create one-of-a-kind lap quilts and other thoughtfully sewn goods in limited quantities.

Everything I offer is made or finished with care, attention to detail, and an appreciation for the role that quality handmade items can play in everyday comfort, meaningful gifts, and family memories.

Let’s finish your quilt

If you have a quilt top ready for quilting, I would love to hear about your project.
