I know everyone here LOVES to make quilt tops, as do I. However, I do not like trying to get them together. :(
I've tried tying one (came out, but I prefer the quilted look), I've tried quilt-as-you-go, (easy, BUT time consuming).
I really would like to machine or hand quilt something larger than about 45", which is the biggest I've attempted. :oops:
I called my local quilt shop, and they want $65 to quilt a 50 x 60" quilt.
Is this about right? She also said that she could "baste" my quilt about every 3" so I could machine quilt it. Has anyone had this done? Did the basting hold up long enough to get all the machine quilting done?
Sorry this is so long...
:roll: Thanks!
