Quilts 'N Kaboodle Professional Longarm Quilting Service

Rates are based upon the type of quilting and charged per square inch. To find an estimate for your pieced top determine the square inches by multiplying the length times the width, then multiply by the fee indicated. There is a minimum of $45 for edge to edge quilting services and a minimum of $60 for custom and $75 for heirloom quilting services.

Prices are subject to change. For an estimate, please make an appointment to have your top measured and to discuss quilting options.

Please note: I offer several edge to edge and freestyle allover designs for you to choose from as my most economical quilting service to meet your needs.. If you desire custom quilting or heirloom quilting I am assuming you are coming to me for my art and skill as a quilter. We will discuss the density (which affects the price range) , thread colors and any specialty design elements I offer, beyond that please recognize that your quilt top then becomes my canvas ~ in other words, free reign to quilt as inspired. Many many times I must live with your quilt until it speaks to me and I'm inspired to create the thread play that is needed to complement your piecing and design. It is within this freedom that I do my best work.

Backing

Please see our comments on backing. Your backing needs to be 8 inches wider and longer than your quilt top and must be squared and pressed for proper loading.

When choosing a back take into consideration that the bobbin thread will be in the same color family as the top thread. In other words, if your top is being quilted in variegated purple then the bobbin thread will be purple ~ if you back is a light color the thread will show. Many people prefer a "busy" back. Again, please read our additional comments on backing.

We do carry wide back quality quilters muslin in natural or creme available at $8.00 per yard and beautiful tone on tone wide backing for only $13.00 per yard.
