    What do you pay to have your quilt quilted?

    I'm finishing my first commissioned project. I hadn't planned to quilt it when I started; but when it got to that point, I just did it. . .it is custom; but a simple free motion design. If you quilt for others, what do you charge? Thanks for the reply. Terry

        go to pages five and six of Eileen's gallery and you can see some previews of my Rhapsody. I have not gotten it bound but that is next on the agenda and then I will post it. I liked it when I finished it but Eileen's quilting put it into the "I love it" category now. Thanks Eileen. And based on my experience with two other long arm quilters and reviewing prices, her prices are fair. A fan, Ann

          Ann and Eileen it looks like you have both done an awesome job on the Rhapsody! Kudos to both of you for a great job!

          Now, if I could only figure out what the heck I'm going to do with mine! :lol: (Can't decide on the applique)

                      The starting price around her is penny per square inch for a pantagram then goes up from there. Custom work can get up to 3 to 5 cents depending if it is for a big show and how dense the pattern is that is being quilted.

                      New quilters tend to charge less til they establish a following then the prices go up to match the more established quilters.


                      I also think it depends upon where in the country you are as to what the going rate is ... and how much competition is there among the LA quilters.
