Please bring your quilt top and backing as separate pieces.

 Price per square inch

I charge 2.5 cents per sq. inch for an allover design, most all designs. For the rare, extremely intricate or dense design, I may charge more but would let you know in advance of beginning your top.

Example: A quilt top is 60 in x 80 in. 60 x 80 = 4800 x .025 = $120

 Minimum charge

My minimum quilting charge is $40.

Our general turnaround time is 3-4 weeks. These times do vary so please check with us on the turnaround time for your quilt.

 Batting 

You are welcome to bring your own batting however we have batting available to cut to size for your project.

 Prep

Measure your quilt top

Be sure that your quilt is square, take the time and check the measurements before you ship your quilt to avoid any extra charges.

Do your borders lay flat or are they wavy? Wavy borders can cause puckers and pleats. If your border is wavy you should remove it, shorten it up and re-sew it on. (Measure the center of the quilt to determine the correct border length)

What size should my backing be?

I require the backing to be 3" extra ON ALL SIDES. For example, if you have a quilt top that is 60" x 80", your backing should measure at least 66" x 86". It can be bigger, not smaller. 

Extra fees may apply if I need to put extra time and effort into getting your quilt ready to load. If you have questions, please ask!

I have a large selection of fabric in my shop.

108” Wide Cotton Fabric  

Shannon Cuddle Fabrics (90” wide & 60” wide).

 Tidy it up!

Please press your top and backing for me so that it's nice and tidy and ready for me to load. Please also clip stray threads or raveling fabrics as best as you can. You might not be able to get them all, but to prevent dark threads shadowing through your quilt top, don't skip this important step!

 Quilting Choice

I want this to be fun for you and not overwhelming!

I can help you to choose your pattern, is 1000+ patterns to choose from, the selection of pattern depends on your purpose for the quilt.

 Would you like you quilt trimmed?

• $5 for baby - lap size, $10 for full - king size.
• We also offer binding services, an estimate can be provided when you drop off the quilt.

Additional charges:

If you quilt it isn’t square or your border are wavy and need to be fix I will contact you, but if you decide we can fix it for you the charge is $15 per hour.
