![]() ![]() Just remember to account for an additional 4” of batting/backing space between the two tops on top of the already 4-6” extra all around. Two 40 x 50” quilts can go into the calculator as an 80 x 50” or 40x100” unit. If you have a couple smaller quilts that can share the same backing and batting they can count as one quilt. Visit the portfolio for pictures that describe the different quilting options. ![]() You can adjust any area to see a change in cost. You can use the Free Motion Quilting Calculator below to help you determine what it will cost to have your quilt done. You will need to provide me with an adequate amount of prepared binding for your quilt. Pricing will depend if you want one or both sides stitched down. All trimmings go back to you unless you specify that you don’t want them.īinding can also be attached as an add on. ![]() Trimming off the excess batting and backing is an add on. Each element in the border, even if it is in the main motif, is counted as its own shape. There is an extra charge for each border because there are additional steps involved that increases the amount of time to finish your quilt. The smaller the design/object, the more dense it becomes and some quilts may even have micro stitching (very, very dense quilting).ĭesign complexity can vary, I charge by the number of different objects that are incorporated into the overal design.īorders can have their own design. A dry microfibre towel works really well. Pricing is determined by the area of the quilt, density, design complexity, separate quilting on the borders, trimming, and binding.ĭensity, if the design is large with lots of unquilted space you will have a low density design. Its a classic - the stipple, otherwise known as meander or vermicelli. See more ideas about free motion quilt designs, longarm quilting designs, machine quilting designs. Backing should extend at least four inches on all sides. Explore Lisa R.s board 'Mctavishing' on Pinterest. Make sure your batting extends a minimum of two inches on all sides. Shannon is the author of the book Scrappy Bits Applique as well as a quilt and fabric designer. I do not carry a stock of either to sell to you. Meander was created by International speaker/teacher Shannon Brinkley. What is NOT included: Batting and backing are not included - you must provide your own. Some long arm quilters may charge as much as $30 for set up and thread can vary from $10-$40 depending on how much is needed to complete your quilt. What IS included: Thread and set up charges are included in the design pricing. These designs are one continuous line of stitching. These are not complicated objects, they don’t have lots of sharp points or changes in direction. Basic edge to edge can be some version of a meander or fairly simple object like a flower, heart, star, clouds, swirls, leaves etc. ![]()
