I have paid to have the binding done on several quilts. I cut it, folded and ironed it, and gave it to a gal to do. But for the life of me I can't remember what she charged. I do know it was by the inch but not how much per inch. It was well worth it for me and she did nice work. Her mom does my quilting for me. But now that I've retired that may change. I now have more time and less money instead of vice versa. Isn't that always the way?
