machine quilting
 
Has anyone sent their quilts to Missouri quilt co to be quilted. I see that they are very reasonably priced, includes batting and backing. Thanks

No but I wish I could afford to send mine somewhere! I usually do QAYG or struggle with a sewing machine. Let us know if you do and like them

​Some members have and were pleased with the results.

I too have been thinking about sending them to Missouri -- good prices but I am not sure I could communicate what I want without using my hands :)

They have a number you can call if you have any questions.

jessiesmom 05-16-2014 04:44 AM

I think I will try them and see how it comes out. I will let you know. Thanks to all who replied to my post.

I have sent a quilt to MSQC and was very pleased with the job done. Their prices are very reasonable. They only do edge to edge, though, so if you want custom quilting, they wouldn't work for you. As a matter of fact, the quilt hanging in my avatar was quilted by them!

Good to know!! I'm planning on making two quilts for Christmas that I think are going to be too big for me to attempt to do any kind of quilting on with my little Janome Sewist 525s. My sister's MIL has a long-arm machine, but I don't know if she has the time/interest in taking on additional projects. :(

I would check with your MIL or check around your area. I don't think that MSQ ($.002 per sq in for E2E/pantograph) is cheaper than anyone else. I could be mistaken but it looks like there is a charge for the batting and backing. Then on top of all of that you have shipping both to them and then back to you.

I see that their price is $0.02 per inch, for edge-to-edge (pantograph) quilting.
I charge $0.015 for the same thing. I will be glad to finish your quilt - if you need me to provide batting and/or backing, I'll email you the additional cost for that as well. Shipping will depend on where you live, but if I can squeeze it into a flat-rate ("if it fits, it ships") box, I'll send it by that method.
You can email me at [email protected]

As I read it on their site it does not include the price of backing though you can buy the backing through their web site. It does appear that it does include batting.

check with your local quilt shops we have one in our area who charges 18.00 dollars an hour to use the long arm and she and she helps load it can usually do a quilt in 2 to 4 hours so is the most reasonable that I have found

Nancy, I have a quilt top 37x48. for $52.00 they will quilt edge to edge whatever pattern I choose, and includes batting and backing. Binding is expensive $45.00, I can do my own. I have asked around and cannot find cheaper than that. I live in Lancaster, Pa so locally is out of the question. Shipping is $5.00. I think I am going to do it, I will let you know how it comes out.
