♥Edge-to-Edge—

Pantograph designs are repeated “rows” of patterns that go from one edge to the other edge of your quilt.  This can include all over meandering designs with many choices, from plain to fancy with swirls and curves.

View Edge -to-Edge Designs (pantos)

♥Custom—

.05- up  per square inch

Custom quilts are priced individually as each one is so unique. Custom designs can include individual block designs, stitch-in-the-ditch, outlining, cross hatching, freehand quilting designs, or use of templates. Many of these include marking, measuring and centering which is more time consuming but extremely enhancing to your quilt. A great choice for everyday quilts that will be handled, washed and loved a lot.

♥For Show—

.08 and up per square inch

For Show quilts are also priced individually for those wanting to enter local or guild quilt shows or just want an extra special quilt for your home.  These quilts usually include stippling, background grids, feathers,  and/or denser free hand quilting designs. This type of quilting is very labor intensive as it requires a great deal of marking, measuring and accuracy. Create prize winning designs for your quilt.

♥Heirloom—

.12 and up per square inch

Heirloom quilts are also priced individually and for those who want a quilt that will be handled carefully and passed down through the generations. These usually include tight stippling, small background grids, feathers, trapunto, and/or very dense free hand quilting designs. This type of quilting is extremely labor intensive as it requires much more quilting, a great deal of marking, measuring and accuracy. Create prize winning designs for your quilt.

♥ Thread & New Needle charge—

$5 and up per quilt
       Specialty threads quoted per job

The amount of thread used depends on the size of your quilt and complexity of quilting.
Pat carries a wide variety of colors to easily match any quilt. Each quilt gets a fresh new needle and some more densely quilted pieces may require 2 to 3 needles.

♥ Backing Seamed —

$17 per seam                         

 Don’t have time or space to seam and square your backing? Let Pat do it for you.                                                 Generous ½” seam allowances with selvages trimmed.

♥ Binding

Half- .17 per linear inch
     Complete- .50 per liner inch   

Trim Only  $15-25

Half binding- Pat will make your binding, machine sew it to the front of your quilt, then trim your quilt. It will be ready for you to hand sew.

Complete Binding– Pat will make your binding, machine sew it to the front of your quilt, trim your quilt and hand sew it to the back with matching thread.

**Trim only– many quilters like to do their own complete binding. Some before trimming, some after trimming.  If you choose to do your own binding but would like me to TRIM,  price depends on size of quilt.

♥ Quilt Rescue—

Prices quoted per quilt

Pat will “rescue” your unfinished old or new quilt top. So many quilt tops are sitting in a closet just waiting to be completed and enjoyed. Whether you just need a border added or a stack of blocks completed into a top, have it finished , layered and quilted so that you can enjoy it.

Note: Pat does not perform quilt repair of older quilts. Quilts or blocks must be in good condition to withstand the pressures of the longarm quilting machine.
