Sew-Along Special: 15% off E2E for your completed SAL project
All pricing for services is per square inch for quilting or per linear inch for binding. To find your square inches, multiply your length by your width. (A 50”x65” throw quilt is 3,250 square inches.) To find your linear inches around the edge of your quilt, add the length and the width and multiply by two (a 50”x65” throw quilt is 115”x2, or 230 linear inches).
I have a $40 minimum charge for every quilt.
Keep in mind that the per square inch fee includes everything; I do not charge a mounting fee, needle fee, thread fee (except when using additional thread colors or sourcing a specialty thread), or pressing fee, and I never charge for design consults. All the normal and expected activities in quilting your top are included in the per square inch charge.
Price quotes are required to be reviewed and agreed to by both parties before I will accept a top for quilting. There will be no surprises in cost once the quilt has been accepted into the queue.
WA state requires that I collect sales tax for both quilting services and any batting, binding, or backing I furnish.
This is a repeated design across the entire quilt with no customization other than scaling the design to the desired size. You can specify a particular design and provide a link to the designer (my favorites are Urban Elementz, Sweet Dreams Studio, or My Creative Stitches) or you can also elect for me to choose a design for you from my vast collection. All designs start at $0.028 per square inch, with very dense designs at $0.03 per square inch.
This option allows you to choose different designs for borders, sashing, and blocks, as well as specifying areas of the quilt you wish to leave unquilted (example: quilts with embroidery or signatures that you want to frame with quilting but not be quilted themselves). For very detailed or complex designs additional fees may apply.
This option includes hand-guided meandering/stippling or stitch-in-the-ditch, and may include simple ruler work. This can be combined with robotic work for robotic-driven borders and SITD free-motioned blocks. Perfect if you want to outline or feature certain elements.
For binding services, you must provide either pre-sewn and pressed binding in your quilt’s finished dimensions PLUS 10” or sufficient fabric for me to construct bias binding to use. All binding will be attached ¼ inch from the edge of the quilt unless specified otherwise. I will not be able to complete any binding services if your quilt cannot be squared. Prices are for straight edges only, no scallops. At this time I do not provide hand-finished binding.
For you to affix to the back when the quilt is returned. Add a machine finish to front for an additional $0.25 per linear inch and a $15 squaring and trimming charge.

You must provide sufficient fabric to construct bias binding plus an additional 10".
If you prefer to hand-quilt or wish to machine-quilt yourself on your domestic machine, but hate basting, I offer basting services for $45 for all quilt sizes. This includes big-stitch basting in a high-contrast polyester thread that will be easy to snip and remove when you are finished.
One color of thread on the top and in the bobbin is included in the per square inch quilting price. Additional colors are available for $3 per additional thread color. I use Omni thread on top and Bottom Line in the bobbin, which are polyester threads. I can obtain variegated, 100% cotton, and specialty threads (glow in the dark, metallic) by request for additional charge based on the cost of the thread.
You may provide your own batting for no cost as long as it is at least 4” wider on all sides than your quilt top. I can also provide Quilter’s Dream 100% cotton batting at $9 per yard. If you have a special batting in mind, let me know I and can arrange to order it through my distributors and pass on the savings to you.
If you do not have your own backing, I can provide plain off-white 100% cotton sateen, which has a lovely soft feel and subtle sheen.
I will trim your quilt as square as it will allow, either right up to the edge of the top or 1/4" out from where the top ends, whichever you specify. I will return all scraps to you unless you tell me otherwise.
These are services provided outside the normal and expected scope of activities required to quilt your top.
The machine foot can get stuck on open seams. It is imperative to repair these seams before any quilting can begin in order to prevent damage to both the machine and the quilt top.
I will piece yardage to create a backing wide enough for my frame if sufficient yardage is provided. Pattern matching is an additional $10.
Pricing depends on the urgency and timing of the deadline and the status of the production queue.
From time to time I may offer special promotional discounts. These discounts apply to one quilt only and will not be honored past their expiration date. Unless explicitly stated in the discount, discounts cannot be stacked.
I offer a referral discount of 10% off your next quilt and your referral’s first quilt once they drop off their first quilt. You may refer up to five people per calendar year for this discount. I will make note in your customer file so you do not need to keep track. Referral discounts do not apply to rush charges.
If you drop off more than five quilts at once, I will offer a 15% discount on all services in that order except rush and shipping fees. Cannot combine with promotional or referral discounts.
Charity quilts are always free, and are quilted with a design at my discretion. Client quilts will always be placed before charity quilts in the production queue and as such I cannot guarantee a turnaround time for charity quilts. If you require a charity quilt by a certain date, or wish to designate quilting designs, the pricing structure above applies. You must specify on the intake paperwork which charity they are designated for. Binding services are not available for charity quilts.
Prices may change at any time without notice. Prices listed above do not include WA sales tax. Any discounts are off of the full listed price.
