Hi Marge, welcome from northern California!

Hello from Western Mountain Maryland !! :-D

Welcome to the board from Southern California!!!

Both...I make and quilt for the public. I also do charity work for Quilts of Valor, and a raffle quilt for the schools, etc...if they ask.

I do a lot of photo & t-shirt quilts.

I have a couple of regular quilt customers...they send on a fairly regular basis..and it pays for my supplies, etc.

I'm blessed in the fact I don't HAVE to work, and all I do is extra money... so it goes for dentist, doctor visits if needed...or if our kids/grands need something paid...we have my little account to share with them.

I don't charge a lot, about average I guess. My basic fee is .015 (1-1/2 cents per square inch)... but that varies depending on what is wanted on the quilt. A queen quilt that measures 90 x 90 inches runs 121.50 plus batting. I have poly batting for a queen at 12.00, Warm and White 80/20 cotton at 24.00 (http://www.hancocks-paducah.com/Item--i-2341), and Wool at 35.00 (http://www.hancocks-paducah.com/Item--i-WL-90). I keep batting in stock at retail price...saves customers on shipping.
Wool batting is sooo fluffy...and warm in winter, cooler in summer. I have it in one quilt of mine...kind of expensive for everyday for me...but in special quilts...I use it.

Hello, welcome and happy quilting from Germany!

I'm Marge Campbell & currently live in Littlefield, TX (36 miles North of Lubbock).
We moved here in Jan 2006, due to hubbys health. Really liking the move, miss our kids & grands though.

I like to quilt, from start to finish (I have a longarm quilting machine)...embroidery (both hand and machine)...play bingo & online poker (the free ones).

We have some cows, ducks, geese, chickens, cats and dogs....and some wild bunnies.

My longarm quilter is equiped with a Qbot quilting robot...nice addition...call Lizzie my poor gals Statler Stitcher (result is the same, just a lot less money).

Good morning & WELCOME from the Texas Hill Country. You will love this message board - full of caring, sharing, thoughtful people (with lots of answers to your questions).

Have a blessed day & may all your quilts be filled w/love!! ((((((HUGS)))))) :thumbup: :lol: :thumbup: :lol:
