Custom Long Arm Quilting Prices
Contact Zoë here for your quilting consultation.
Prices are based on size of quilt (square inches) and complexity of quilting pattern. Minimum charge of $55 per quilt.
To find square inches, multiply length of quilt by the width of quilt. Example: 60 x 90 = 5,400 square inches. Multiply this by the cost of quilting, below:
Edge-to-edge quilting : one pattern over the entire quilt with one thread color is 2 cents per square inch (5400 x .02 = $108 for the example quilt).
Dense edge-to-edge quilting: one pattern over the entire quilt with one thread color is 3-5 cents per square inch.
*above prices do not include batting, backing, or binding.
Quilt Top Preparation
To minimize your cost, please prep your quilt top properly. Press seams flat, trim threads and points, remove pins or basting threads. Square-up and trim quilt top to its final size. Measure and press backing fabric (it should be 8 inches larger than quilt top in both directions). Place a large safely pin at the top of the quilt. Please note: the quality of the pieced top may affect the quality of the finished quilted piece. To ensure best results, proper piecing and preparation are required.

3. Removing threads : $10
