Modern City Block Quilt for 10 year old Niece-Quilted by Happy Crafters in Kansas
I just finished the binding on this quilt for my 10 year old niece for Christmas. It is the second one that I sent to Happy Crafters in Kansas to quilt. It is a simple pantograph, but the quilting charge was only $20!! ( I would pay that just to have someone sandwich the quilt for me!!) It has a fluffy poly batting by choice because I thought she would like it that way. One christmas gift done!![ATTACH=CONFIG]489480[/ATTACH][ATTACH=CONFIG]489481[/ATTACH]

Looks great! For those that hate binding, I see that they offer that at such a low price as well!
I was looking at their website, but didn't see closeup pics of their quilting. Were you pleased with the quality of the stitching?

Yes, it is a basic pantograph, but I didn't see any tucks, stitches were uniform. I bought their poly batting (didn't see any reason to pay for shipping batting),and it is fairly high loft batting so it gives a fairly puffy quilt which is what I wanted for this child's quilt. I didn't have them bind it and they don't trim if they don't bind, so I can't vouch for binding quality. This is my second quilt I sent to them, I posted photos and a review of the first one about 6 weeks ago, so if you do a search you can review that info/photos if you want more info. For the price, I am happy with their work!!
