My cousin said she took her quilts in to a company that charged around $20 to have it done on a machine, about 10 years ago, so I was thinking with inflation, today it would be about $40-$50. So I'm not sure what machine that company used, but that's why I had posted "that's expensive just for stitching." She made it sound like they put your quilt on a machine and it's programmed to follow a pattern and they hit start. I'm very much new to the quilting world and I have tons of questions. That's why I'm on here. I mean no disrespect at all to anyone here. I apologize if it seemed that way. :oops:
I am not a long-arm quilter so I might very well be mistaken, but I don't think you upset or offended anyone. I think it's all good info. we're getting. From what I can tell, people can afford to be candid on this board; it's one way that we learn stuff. I've "vented" at least once since I joined.
