If 48,000 stitches costs $48, then 100,000 stitches would cost $100. Am I right?

$1 per thousand is $100.

We were all off our math but for "shorebird". I learned (and should have given more tho't)--you move back 2 spaces from the right and insert the decimal point. Hence, 100.000 stitches = $1000.00. I am sooooo ashamed of myself! Still a very high price for embroidery.

Wow, those prices are very high! I don't mean over-priced...I just never dreamed it costs that much.

One dollar for each thousand stitches. If you have forty eight thousand stitches that is forty eight dollars. If you have one hundred thousand stitches, that makes one hundred dollars. $100.00 for 100,000 stitches.

i'm doing gingerbread houses over 60,000 stitches.it takes 2 layers of ultra solvey (30.00 a roll) per piece of the house, 4 walls and 2 roof pieces. (It's in Urban Threads under lace gingerbread house if you want to see it.)
I saw it on ETSY from $20 to $36.20 for the house. a lot of work for sure.
