Pricing
The pricing for Longarm Machine Quilting varies depending on the quilt size, quilting density, and design detail. These variations can range anywhere from 2 cents per square inch* for a medium-density overall edge-to-edge design or as high as 5 cents or more for highly custom, extreme detail work. Edge-to-edge quilting is a popular choice and will enhance most any quilt. Most of my E2E patterns are very detailed and give a custom look without the custom charge. On other quilts, you may wish to add more detail, for instance, separate border designs and narrow borders that are stitched in the ditch. It is our goal to develop an overall design for your quilt that matches your intention and your budget.
Because each quilt is unique and one-of-a-kind, we prefer to discuss your quilt with you after we have received it. I welcome any design ideas you may have! If you aren’t sure what might look best, it’s ok to say, “I don’t know — please decide for me.”
The information below is for estimating purposes only. Your charges are determined by your quilt size and type of quilting you desire. Details for the cost of your quilt will be thoroughly discussed prior to beginning any work. Please see FAQ for descriptions of quilting and take a peek at the gallery for examples . Also, please note our minimum setup fee of $40.00. And of course, the highest quality thread is included.
