How much will it cost to get my quilt quilted?

Are you interested in knowing what the pricing and costs will be to have your quilt quilted? Your cost is based upon the actual dimensions of your quilt top. All machine quilting is priced by the square inch. I also charge a $10 fee for needles, thread, and batting. 


I have a professional-grade machine which will make your quilt exceptional. I am able to quilt both freehand and using pantographs, which makes me able to provide you with a multitude of options. I pride myself on my quick turnaround on quilts brought to my shop.


 I charge 1.5 cents an inch, for longarming and charge $10 for needles, thread and batting. I have backing fabric that I sell in my shop.  


Binding 

We offer half binding or whole binding. For half binding, we machine-stitch the binding around the top of your completed quilt, I then wrap the binding to the quilt back and stitch it in place. For whole binding, we do it all for you. Price is $15 per quilt + fabric.


Preparing Your Quilt Top for Machine Quilting

Make sure your quilt top is well pressed and seams are flattened. Seams should be pressed flat not pressed open.

  • Trim all hanging threads from the back and edge as much as you can. Those threads will show through light areas of the quilt.
  • Quilting does not correct piecing problems. If there is fullness in the center or wavy borders, you may wind up with pleats or puckers. I do my best to correct such problems as I quilt, but I can’t guarantee that I can work out all problems. To avoid wavy borders and pleats, you must make your quilt fit your borders. Measure through the middle of the quilt and cut your borders to that length. You may need to ease the quilt to fit the borders.
  • Quilts must be clean and free of offensive odors. ( I reserve the right to refuse Quilts with strong odors so that they may not contaminate the work of other clients and my equipment).
  • Identify the top of your quilt and backing with a safety pin if it has a directional print.
  • If you want curved corners, please wait until the quilting is finished to cut the curves. Proper attachment of the quilt to the long-arm machine depends on straight, square corners.

Preparing the Backing for Machine Quilting

  • The backing fabric should be 100% cotton fabric. I know flat sheets are popular for backings, but I do not recommend them. If you really want to use a sheet, please be sure that the thread count is no more than 180 and wash and dry it at least five times.
  • I reserve the right to refuse backings that may cause tension problems or to charge a fee for the extra time necessary to work with such a backing.
  • If the backing fabric isn’t big enough, please use a 5/8″ seam to piece the backing. Press the seam open.
  • The backing must be at least eight inches larger in length and width than the top.
  • Please press the backing fabric.
  • Please do not baste the quilt top, batting, and backing together. I need all three layers separated so I can attach them individually to the frame.
