Looking for Inexpensive Quilting Site
 
I have seen several posts here on an inexpensive LA quilting site but now I can't seem to find the posts. I was sure I bookmarked it but I've been through my bookmarks several times and can't find it. Does anyone remember the name of the site? I thought it was happyquilts.com but when I checked the site it doesn't look like the one I remember. I have several tops I need quilted and want to give them a try.

Native Texan, can you share. I remember the thread and thought I had saved it but just looked and can't find it either. Thanks!

There is a list if longarm quilters organized by state under the classified category of the board

Usually in the Midwest where the cost of living is lower is where I would start to look. Remember the cost of shipping the quilts. I have seen nice comments posted about MSQC LAQ. They only do continuous patterns.

I suspect you are looking for Happy Crafters in Kansas.

MaggieLou 02-18-2015 06:46 AM

Happy Crafters was the site. I'm not looking for custom quilting on these tops. I just want to get them quilted and not pay a fortune. They aren't for show or anything else right now.

Thanks to all who replied.

This is something I will have to check out. Have never sent anything out before.

I've read posts of quilts being lost in the mail, so be careful and insure your quilt is my suggestion.

Check with local quilt guilds and quilt shops. Plenty of long armers in your area, most likely. Lots of them dont advertise beyond their immediate circle of quilters. Word of mouth vs print advertising.

Our quilt group sends most of our quilts to Country Stitches Quilting ( Bill Weaver) in St Elmo, IL. He is on facebook also.He has a quick turn around time and prices are fair. Message me for more info.

Try Happy Crafters. I have used then several times, been pleased with the results, and will use them again.

Can someone tell me how to find the classified section with some of these LA quilters you ar talking about. My set up is not big enough to quilt some of the quilts I would like to make.

JanieH 02-19-2015 02:58 PM

Thanks to the people who recommended Happy Crafters. I will be investigating them also.

I have ordered from The Cotton Patch and they have a long arm quilting service in that they use edge to edge repeating designs. I think they might do custom quilting for a little bit higher price.
