QUILTING SERVICES: Our quilting is all hand-guided at this time, giving your quilt an organic finish. If you prefer a perfect look, computerized quilting would be more appropriate for you and we'd be happy to refer you to someone.
BINDING SERVICES: Our binding is generally done by machine sewing to front and hand-sewing to the back of the quilt.
This service can be a stand-alone service, or in addition to our quilting service.
Price for basic standard binding starts as follows, and may increase depending on sizing and complexity of task...
$0.05 /linear inch to make(cut, sew + press strips)
$0.10 /linear inch to attach to front
$0.15 /linear inch to hand finish
If you are interested in our Quilting/Binding Services you may come in during our regular open hours for the intake process. If none of our open hours work for you, please email us so we can coordinate an alternative time.
- Estimates on price for quilting your unique quilt will be determined once your quilt is in our hands and will be based on type of complexity of quilting. Accurate estimates are difficult when based on descriptions or pictures.
- $35 minimum charge no matter the size.
- There may be a preparation fee if borders, blocks or backs require sizing, or do not lay flat or if fixing of seams is requested.
- Pieced backs are best if they have 1/2 inch seam allowances remaining after selvages are cut off.
- BACKING: Please add an additional total of 12" MINIMUM to the size of your entire backing (top/bottom and sides) to allow for tension testing, warming up, use of rulers to create the quilting design and allowing room for the clamps to help maintain a nice taught backing throughout.
- Quilt tops that smell of smoke or moth balls will not be accepted. I am allergic to both and it is very difficult to get the smell out of my storage system and the store. Doors need to be left open and air purifiers running. This is not cost effective and is a waste of resources as there is generally either heat or air conditioning running. The store cannot risk the smells getting into the fabric on the sales floor or the quilts of other customers. If you are able to air them out prior to bringing them to the store and I can't detect it when you arrive, I will quilt it.
- Please remove pet hair from your quilt and backing with a lint roller prior to bringing them in. If not done prior to arrival, it needs to be done in store and then the area used to do this will also need to have the hair removed. People are allergic to animals and having pet hair in the store with our fabric and customer fabrics just isn't appropriate.
