Sample answer
“When stuffing a quilt, I start with high-quality materials, such as 100% cotton batting. I methodically lay out the batting to ensure even coverage, then use a consistent technique of layering and compressing the stuffing to achieve uniform thickness. Throughout the process, I conduct regular checks to ensure there are no lumps or inconsistencies, which I address immediately. This attention to detail has resulted in a 95% satisfaction rate from customers for my quilts.”
