I charge 15 cents per inch..and that's for sewing on both sides..hand sewing the back side is 25 cents per inch.

I figured yours...and I think you are meaning 15 cents per inch...200" x .15= $30.00

Some charge 30-40 cents per inch for show quilts.
My price does not include the material...just stitching the binding.

Per running foot of bound quilt seems like a good place to start. What would you think of 15 cents per running foot? That would be $30 for a 50" by 50" baby quilt. Hmm, seems like too much. Maybe a dime per running foot, which would be $20 for that dimension baby quilt.

Is there any other quilt binding service that anyone knows of?

Thanks for helping me think!
