Machine Quilting Prices

Each price level is based on a per square inch charge.  To estimate the cost, multiply the length times the width of the quilt to arrive at the square inch factor, then multiply by the type of quilting you would like.  i.e., 60 X 80 = 4800" X .015 = $72.00  Prices may vary depending on the denseness of the quilting and design elements.  Prices shown here are for estimating only.  I will be happy to work with you to find a design in your price-range.  Remember -- finishing is priceless!

Over-All Quilting (also know as edge-to-edge) - $.015 - .175 per square inch  (minimum charge - $35.00)
This is an over-all design using a simple pantograph or large stipple, meander, or free-motion quilting.
