    I have found that good long arm quilting is an art. If you find a person who does a wonderful job the expense is worth it. Good quilting really enhances your project. I highly recommend Charismah. She does wonderful work and her prices are in the middle range. She is definitely worth every penny and more.

    Where do I find this list on the board? I did a search but all posts concerning longarm quilting came up.
    Thank you!

    some charge by the project itself- some charge by the square inch...like 1 1/2 cents a square inch-
    some only do panto's=edge to edge patterns- some do custom work- some are computer guided, some are all free=handed- the prices vary as much as the techniques- and skills.
    we really do not (normally) discuss prices on the open board- that is more a private message exchange.

    I almost feel guilty telling what I just paid today for my king size quilt! I paid $50! She provided the batting and thread. I am going to add the binding as I am going to do prairie points. She usually charges $55 for a king and I believe she charges an additional $20 to do the binding. She does a beautiful job too! I am very happy! My question here, since it was my first to have done....should I have included a tip?

    Do a search on the web for long arm quilters and you will get a broad selection to look at that quote their prices.

    It depends on the size of the quilt, whether its an edge to edge design or a custom job, how much thread is used and if they provide the batting.
