Pricing
Edge to Edge Quilting
Edge to Edge Quilting
Edge to Edge or "All Over" quilting is charged by the hour at $25/hour. Typically that falls between 2 and 2 1/2 cents per square inch. That's because some designs are denser and/or more intricate and take more time.
Here's an example of how much that would cost for different sized quilts...
For the square inch rate, calculate the cost for quilting as follows: multiply the length x width x .02. For example (your measurements will vary):
50 x 60 Lap quilt = between $60 - $75
60 x 80 Twin Quilt = between$96 - $120
80 x 95 Queen Quilt = $152 - $190
100 x 100 King Quilt = $200 - $250
I can choose an appropriate design for your quilt, or if you’d like to select a design yourself, take a look at my "Eye Candy" page. There I show pictures of quilts and links to designers I purchase designs from.
Custom Quilting
Edge to Edge Quilting
Because custom longarm quilting is so individual, I've chosen to charge for it by the hour. My price is $25/hour. I realize that doesn't tell you how much your quilting will cost. That's because it all depends on how densely and how intricately you would like your quilt quilted. And I can certainly recommend something that will fit within your budget. But in the mean time, I show lots of examples with pricing on my Eye Candy pages... Edge to Edge, Limited Custom, Mid Custom and Heirloom Custom.
When you're ready to have our quilting done, you and I will discuss how your quilt could be quilted. There are so many options to choose from. I'm sure we'll find something you'll love that will fit within your budget.
And, yes, all the quilting is done by me.
Batting
do you need a quilt finished?
I will use whatever batting you decide to provide, or you are welcome to purchase batting off the roll from me. I price batting by the lineal inch. So for example, if your quilt is 70" by 70", you'll be charged $25.60
(70" + 10" = 80" x .30 = $25.60)
I stock the following battings from Quilters Dream:
100% cotton batting with no scrim, glues, or binders
Quilters Dream Poly – in black
wonderful soft denier microfibers. You won’t believe it is polyester!
shearly beautiful soft and luxurious wool batting
Quilters Dream Bamboo–
luxurious blend of silk, bamboo, cotton, and Tencel
*Pricing for the above is shown on the "Quilt Intake" form found at the top of the Home page.
do you need a quilt finished?
do you need a quilt finished?
Sometimes you've just had enough, and wish someone would just finish that quilt top for you? Or.... maybe a relative who was a quilter passed away, and you've found treasures he or she was working on, and you would like to see them finished.
I can do that for you. I would be honored to do that for you.
As with everything else I do, I charge $25/hour for this service. I will keep you informed every step of the way. Supplying you with progress pictures and cost updates. I can just finish the quilt top or give you back a finished quilt. That's totally up to you.
Binding, Labels and more
If you would like, I can return a completed quilt to you. I offer complete custom longarm quilting services. That means that in addition to quilting your quilt, I can also add the binding (sewn by hand or machine), add a hanging sleeve, and even add a quilt label.
These services are charged at $25/hour, plus material costs (unless materials - fabric for binding, sleeve, and quilt label, are provided by the customer).
Timing & How it all works
.JPG/:/rs=w:388,h:194,cg:true,m/cr=w:388,h:194)
I will endeavor to have your quilt completed as quickly as possible. For edge-to-edge quilting, I typically complete that within 1 to 2 weeks. For custom quilting that may take a bit longer. I will let you know when we speak about timing for completion.
My process for custom quilting may be a bit different from other longarmers you may have worked with. The 1st thing I do when getting ready to quilt your quilt is that I lay it out and place a piece of clear acrylic over a section, and with some dry erase markers start drawing quilting designs on the the acrylic. Or print out some digital designs. I usually come up with 3 or 4 options that look nice and fit within your budget. These I then either text or email to you to let you choose which (if any) you like. Once we have a design, I then start quilting. And along the way, I'll text/email you progress pictures of how the quilting is coming along. That way there are no surprises when you receive your completed quilt. Other than of course how much nicer the quilting is in person than it was in the picture :-).
