Machine Quilting
Styles of available quilting designs range from pantograph (edge-to-edge) patterns, freehand edge-to-edge, and custom. All my quilting services are completed in a clean, smoke- and pet-free environment.
Quilt top borders should be non-wavy and lie flat. Longarm quilting will not magically fix uneven borders that may cause a quilt to have tucks or stretch out of shape when quilted.
If you have questions about how to prepare your quilt top and backing, please contact me and I'll be glad to share information with you.
Pricing is generally determined by size of the quilt and complexity of design to be quilted. Prices start at $.015 (1.5 cents) per square inch up to $.04 (4 cents) per square inch. Multiply the length by the width of your quilt top. Then, multiply that by the quilting style cost shown below.
This will provide you with an estimate only. For more accurate pricing and additional details, please set up an appointment with me to discuss your quilting needs.
My minimum studio charge is $35.00.

Binding Service
I provide two different double-fold binding options in addition to quilting for those that prefer not to attach the binding themselves. Binding price is charged by the running foot (rf).
To determine the running foot (rf) measurement of your quilt, use the formula below:
(length + width) x 2 = _____, divided by 12 = Total rf* (*rounded up to next 1/2 foot)
Option #1: $2.00/rf
Includes trimming the quilt, making the binding and machine stitching the binding to the quilt top. Hand-stitching the binding to the back of the quilt is done by the customer.
Option #2: $2.50/rf
Includes everything in Option #1 and I will hand-stitch the binding in place on the back of your quilt.
**Note: I do not apply satin or blanket binding. If you are interested in my binding service, you will need to provide extra cotton fabric for the binding when dropping off your quilt. For help in calculating how much fabric you need for the binding, please contact me with the exact size of your quilt top.
