Pricing varies from .015¢ per square inch to "quote only" for heirloom quilting. Whenever possible I prefer my client to arrange time at the studio so we can go over her top, choose thread and discuss quilting options. Pricing includes your choice of Superior Thread - King Tut, So Fine!, Metallics or MonoPoly. I also carry Dream brand quality batting in 92" and 122" as well as both sizes of bamboo.

The quickest way to figure out how much it will cost to quilt your quilt?

width of top X length of top X type of quilting

55" x 68" top = 3740 sq. inches

  • meander = 3740 X .015 = $56.10

  • pansies = 3740 X .020 = $74.80

  • topography = 3740 X .025 = 93.50

  • custom = 3740 X .030 = $112.20

  • Heirloom = quote only



LOW DENSITY, EDGE TO EDGE - .015¢ per sq. inch / $2.16 per sq. foot (minimum $50)
All designs can be modified to suit the client and scaled to fit the size and shapes in the quilt top.
  • meander
  • loop meander
  • heart or leaf meander



MEDIUM DENSITY, EDGE TO EDGE - .02¢ per sq. inch / $2.88 per sq. foot (minimum $50)

All designs can be modified to suit the client and scaled to fit the size and shapes in the quilt top. We are adding elements to a simple meander so once again, the listing here is only an example - Santa in a chimney - sailboat - lollipops? Our imaginations can play!

  • pansies
  • wacky flowers
  • wandering feathers
  • rosebuds
  • daisychain

HIGH DENSITY EDGE TO EDGE - .025¢ per sq. inch / $3.60 per sq. foot (minimum $50)

All designs can be modified to suit the client and scaled to fit the size and shapes in the quilt top. This pricing would be for heavily quilted edge to edge where much more thread and time is involved.

  • topography
  • wood grain

CUSTOM - .03¢ per sq. inch / $4.32 per sq. foot

This would involve stitch in the ditch to outline blocks and or borders with some low density quilting. This would be done with appliqued quilts, kaleidoscope blocks ,etc.

HEIRLOOM - .04¢ per sq. inch and up / $5.76 per sq. foot

This quilting style is done as quote only as so much depends on the quilt itself and how much designing and template building is involved.

Disclaimer:

I am not able to quilt out piecing errors! If the quilt top is not square or the borders are too full you can expect pleats or tucks in the finished quilt. While I will try to ease in as much as possible that will only work for a small amount of fullness. Quilting will not line up points or seams.When 2 obvious colours are chosen for the top and bottom thread or a solid colour is used as the backing you may see "pokies" of thread colour coming through. It is best to use a patterned backing and choose your bobbin thread to be as neutral as possible.Payment is due upon completion and payable by cash, cheque or PayPal. There is a $30 fee for returned cheques. I do hand-guided free motion quilting. My quilting will be unique and individual to each quilt and not computer perfect!
