Send a PM to GreenFairy. She does BEAUTIFUL work, maybe she can help you. There are a few here who do quilting for others (Eddie is in Arkansas, perhaps he could help). Just search your topic. Hope you find help.

Wow....I had my 1st quilt go out to a longarm quilter and I was charged ......get this....$30 :)
I'm in a very rural area and she only wants "to make enough money to pay for her machine." She always has dozens of quilts waiting for her attention and I had to wait 4 weeks to get my quilt back. But for $30 compared to the other prices listed, I'll deal with the wait.
The only thing with Edie, she'll only do one pattern across the entire quilt top. If you want more elaborate quilting and switching of patterns, she's not your girl. I had a puzzle pattern quilted on my 1st and I think it came out very nice. She does receive quilts from "everywhere" and has boxes and boxes stacked up in her quilting room.

I have a shop in Arkansas do my quilts. My large king size are $65.00 with free shipping and insurance back to me. She does great work. She is also on ebay.

Check out: http://www.eaglemountainquilting.com/
She is very reasonable and does lovely work. Her website includes a wide range of prices based on the design that you want. Right now, she ships back for free! I've had three of my quilts done there and all were very reasonable and I was delighted with the results.

I second the Eagle Mountain Quilting company. She does a wonderful job. I let her provide the batting and just send my top and backing. I cram a bunch in a flat rate box to save on postage. She's very quick too!

My longarm quilter charges 0.015 per square inch. I also buy the batting from her because she buys it in large rolls and it is cheaper than I can buy it. Luckily she's only a 15 minute drive. So I drop off my quilts and pick them up.
