That is probably close to the the going rate. Around here they charge 2¢ a square inch for a simple edge to edge.

Usually they charge per square inch. In your case, 90x120=10800 sq inches @ .02¢ per comes to $216.00. That does not include batting or binding around here. |
Thanks everyone for your response and info, should come in handy. I'm disabled and sewing is what keeps me occupied and also keeps me sane. When looking for material for quilting, I always look for bargins, discounts. I used to work for Walmart bought alot of fabric then. So after I became disabled, that's all I had to do, shop and sew. So when I moved from Texas to Missouri, I brought my big stash with me, they told me to leave it but no not me. I had to rent a storage just to keep it. I still use it, plus I am still buying fabric. Just love to sew. Thanks again
