Machine Quilting

As every quilt is different, the cost of quilting will vary. Generally the quilting fee will be based on how large your quilt top is and the kind of quilting done on it. If this is a quilt that will be heavily used, such as a child's quilt, I highly recommend an overall pantograph or freehand pattern as it is the sturdiest type of quilting. Ornamental pieces or those that will be gently used can benefit from custom quilting that can bring out the details of your piecing.

Here's how this works:

I have a library of photos of samples of my work that you're welcome to explore.

Calculate Cost Estimates

These estimates are for informational purposes only. The prices quoted below are for quilting service alone based on the measurements you enter. I will measure your quilt before I begin quilting and will calculate my fees based on the measurements I take.

These estimates do not include costs of batting, thread, return shipping, or other service fees. If you have any questions or concerns about these other charges, please contact me so we can discuss them.
Please round up your quilt's height and width to the nearest whole inch. This will give you a more accurate estimate.
