I am curious as to how much it cost to have a quilt quilted. Is the price claculated by the size or how much quilting is done? Is there anything special I should ask?

my LAQ has a $50.00 minimum. charges between 1cent and 3per sq inch. depends on how much quilting you want. i know her price is high but her work is unbelieveable. she has won too many awards to list. i figure if i spent weeks of work on a quilt i want the finished product to be special. i can't do the quilting myself because of physical problems.

Get a recommendation from someone, see their work. Most quilters will give you an estimate on what you want done.

There is a place on the For sale part that lists laq, they tell you about their business.

Actually this price is not high, it is the average cost. Most LAQ I have run across charge .013 and up for quilting. Granted there are some that are less but they are few and far between.
