There is a quilt shop about 2hours away that ,last time I checked, was 50.00 for the initial lesson (1 hour) and then 10.00 per hour after that. I am going to assume that the renter supplies needles, thread, and of course backing and batting. I would be interested, but it's a bit of a drive. If the shop was closer to me, I would rather do my own. The last time I had quilt longarmed, it was 145.00 and she didn't quilt it the way I asked or use the color thread I asked for. She did do a beautiful job, just not the one I wanted. Won't go back.
