If you think you may start quilting for other people you should start with calling around other long arm quilters in your area and see what they are charging--quite often the charge is by the square inch (generally somewhere between 1 & 3 cents per square inch depending on density/complexity of the quilting {and you'd experience}) it is best to determine YOUR prices and policies and have them in writing before agreeing to the job...protect yourself and your customer.. Don't leave anything *questionable*
