These are an estimate of what I charge for quilting.  
​
​Overall Quilting -- .018 sq. in.

This type of quilting, sometimes called edge-to-edge, is the stitching of one pattern or meandering on the entire quilt.  This price is only for medium - large single patterns so much of my quilting for customers does not fit in this category.

Two-Pattern Quilting or Small Overall Quilting -- .02 sq. in.

This type of quilting uses two patterns, typically an overall design and a border design.  This is also the price for a small stitched overall quilting pattern or designs that are more simple to execute than custom quilting designs.  This is the price that the majority of my customer work comes under.



 Minimum charge for quilting:  $50.00

 Custom Quilting -- .025 - .04 sq. in.

This quilting uses more than two designs or quilting such as stitch-in-the-ditch, outlining, cross-hatching, trapunto, border and sash designs and/or block designs.  Basically any design where there is marking involved or ruler work will be a custom quilting price.

Misc. Charges (added to base price)

Thread -- $5.00 per quilt for standard threads (additional charge for specialty threads)

Sew Binding On Front -- $15.00 (additional charge to make binding)
Batting -- Please bring the batting for your quilt top.  I can occasionally supply the batting (ask when you contact me what I have on hand)

$15.00 per seam to piece backing

How to figure the total square inches on your quilt top.

Measure the length and width of your quilt top.  Multiply those number (length x width) and that total will equal the square inches of the quilt top.  Example:  If your quilt top measures 60" x 70", that number multiplied is 4,200. So the square inches of a 60" x 70" quilt top is 4200 square inches.  Taking that number (4200) and multiply it by .02 (the cost of two-pattern quilting) gives you a total of $84.00, the cost of quilting for that size quilt.  Additional charges would be for batting, thread and any other work added to the quilting.

Additional Information

The prices on this website represent a pricing guideline for my services.  When you bring your quilt top to me, we can discuss the best way to quilt your top and I can give you a cost estimate for quilting.  My time frame varies from month to month with the fall (September through November), being the busiest time.  There is an additional charge if you need your quilt done quickly, but usually I can move things around on my schedule and finish your quilt top if it's needed in a hurry. 

​I usually do not quilt t-shirt quilts or other quilts made out of fabric other than cotton.  If this is the type of quilt you need quilted, please talk to me about it as some of these quilts are easier to quilt than others.  Also, I will only take backings made out of fabrics other than cotton (such as Minky or fleece) if they have less than 25% stretch.
