It was $265 for both and I furnished the batting and she put together the backing on one.
When I give my work to my lovely quilting lady, I give her the top, the backing and she uses her batting. She doesn't do an overall free hand quitling, she does each box, or area separately to match what's going on. I would say, for what she did with yours, if it was what you wanted, $65....$75 would be a more realistic price per quilt. She did a general quilting with not a very full stitching. It couldn't have taken a very long time to do. My opinion though. When you go to someone, you need to see samples and strike a deal based on those.
