This sounds like a reasonable price to me as well. Binding for a queen size quilt takes hours. $20 for that is as cheap as chips. I'm sure there are many women on this board who would gladly pay to have it done for $20. Like the others on this board have mentioned quilting a large queen size quilt on a regular size sewing machine isn't easy. It can be done but sometimes with unfavorable results even for the most experience quilter. Personally I don't quilt anything larger than a double on my sewing machine. For me it's just too difficult. Have your wife join our board. The people here are a wealth of knowledge. But the best patr is... It's free.
