FABRIC & MATERIALS COSTS: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
All fabric and material costs are at current market
prices. I prefer to patronise local |
|
|
|
quilt shops, so the estimate will reflect this price.
If required, I will go to other outlets to find the |
|
|
|
required |
materials. |
|
|
|
|
|
Quality 100% cotton fabrics will be used unless
otherwise specified in the estimate |
|
|
|
My preferred batting is Warm & Natural
or Hobbs Heirloom, but other
battings such as wool, unscrimmed |
|
|
|
cotton (preferred for hand quilting), polyester blends
or pure polyester (NOT |
|
|
|
RECOMMENDED) can be used, if desired. |
|
|
|
|
Other fillings can be used, but must meet with my
approval. |
|
|
|
|
In all of my |
work, workmanship will
|
take precedence over schedules. |

AVERAGE COST OF QUILT

cost or quilting costs) |

|
Easy Design/Construction |

|
|
|
To compute the cost of the quilt, take the measurement
of the quilt in inches, divide by 144, and you will get
the number of sq. ft. |
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
|
NOTE: |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Even with a simple design, it can take at least 3 months
for the completion of a quilt. |
|
Added time is needed if the quilt needs to be Long Arm
Quilted or for more complex designs. |
|
Rush service is available, but will depend on my
schedule and the time available for the |
|
person doing the Long Arm Quilting. Rush service will
incur an additional $75 fee. |
|
I do my best to complete my quilts in a timely manner,
but quality of construction is paramount. |
|
|
You have final approval of all designs, and you will be
consulted in case a design change is needed. |
