I offer a variety of levels of quilting because your quilt deserves the most appropriate treatment based on materials, expected usage, the intended recipient, your personal style and the style of piecing and fabrics. Please enjoy looking at samples of my work in my Customer Quilt Gallery. To see pricing, select the level of quilting from the drop down Services menu on the left.
During the initial consultation you will be included in making the quilting design decisions. I offer as much assistance as you want and need to make these decisions. My experience as a professional quilter is all yours through this process.
Pricing is calculated based on the square footage of your quilt. Batting is not included; however, many different types of batting are available for purchase. I will help you select the right batting to achieve the look you want for your completed quilt.
Over 200 threads are available to choose from so the overall effect on your quilt is perfect. There is no additional charge for thread color changes or variegated thread; however, there is an overall thread charge for most levels of quilting. This charge is also based on the square footage of your quilt.
The final edge on your quilt is the binding. I can prepare, attach, and finish the quilt binding for you. My award-winning binding technique features double-fold binding with faux mitered corners. Finishing can be done by machine or by hand.
Pricing is calculated based on the perimeter measurement of the quilt and does not include fabric. To see pricing, select the binding service from the drop down Services menu on the left.
