MACHINE QUILTING |
|
|
|
|
 |
I can recommend the appropriate
style of quilting for your quilt based on your ideas and the final
destination and use of your quilt. The type of batting and thread can also
be considered at the same time. |

Calculating Quilting Cost: |
|
| |
|
Multiply the
length of the quilt by the width, in inches. Then multiply that
total (square inches) by the cost of the quilting style chosen. |
| |
|
|
Example: |
|
|
Quilt measures 60” by 80”: 60 x 80 = 4800
square inches.
Then multiply 4800 square inches x $.015 =
$72.00. |
|
This is the quilting cost for a medium density pantograph pattern. |

BINDING |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
The binding is
prepared from your fabric and machine stitched to the front of your quilt
with finely mitered corners. |

|
Calculating Binding Cost: |
|
|
Add the length of the four sides of the
quilt, in inches, and then multiply that total (linear inches) by
the cost of the binding style chosen. |
| |
|
|
Example: |
|
|
Quilt measures 60” x 80”: 60 + 60 + 80 + 80 = 280
linear inches.
Then multiply 280 inches x $.18 =
$50.40. |
|
This is the cost for standard bindings
hand stitched to the back of the quilt. |
|

QUILT
PREPARATION |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
Your quilt back and batting must
be at least 6” longer and 6” wider than your quilt top. This will allow for
3” extra on each side for mounting the quilt and centering. Please remove
all selvage edges on the backing seams; this can create puckering on the
back of your quilt. Press and square your quilt top and back and remove
stray threads. Mark top of quilt with a safety pin. If you prefer, you
may send your fabric yardage with the quilt top, and I will piece, press and
square it for you. |

Please note: I routinely press
out fold lines and minor wrinkles prior to quilting at no charge; above
charges are for the non-ironers and for pressing seams flat for better
quilting results. |
