It says $60 + shipping unless she has to cut twice (really big quilt?).quote=Midwestmary]
I'm curious about cost - I didn't see nay prices listed on the website. What would she charge for a twin size quilt?[/quote]

I'm attaching the link if anyone wants to use Kate Flynn's services.
I love this and need to send her more.

I do this all the time. Saves a lot of headaches and time when constructing the quilt. I usually have a medium sized tote box full. That's a lot, but just imagine, the space saving.

Then put who the quilt is for on front of the zip lock. This way I have all my cutting out of the way, and then all I have to do is take each kit and sew the pieces together.
Has anyone done this before.
Thanks,

Love the idea. When I used to sew clothing for my daughter I would lose interest in the project by time I got the cutting finished. She outgrew some dresses before I got them sewed together because of this lack of interest after cutting. Good idea you have come up with. Take care.

This is a very good idea for several reasons. If you have any kind of trouble with your hands (I have tendonitis and tenovensitis) it affects what I'm able to do daily. If I have good days, I cut. Because I could go weeks before my hands don't hurt so I can cut again. It's easier to sew than to use the pressure to cut fabric. Whatever makes it easier for you is the right answer.
