A few months ago, in the back of some quilting magazine, I saw an ad for binding. This person was charging $.15 an inch for just the hand sewing and .30 for attaching the entire binding. That would be $36 or $70 for a 60" quilt and about $54 or $108 for a double size. Considering it takes me about 4 hours just to do the hand sewing on a double/queen, that figures out to about $13.50 per hour (unless you're a fast sewer) so I think that's about right. Not sure how many of us would pay that much for the convenience if we can do it ourselves, but if there's a market, I wouldn't mind doing it. I love to do the bindings because I can do them while I watch TV and multitask.
