Pricing Info, thread and pattern selection

Sweet Relish Quilting by Kathy Harvey

e-mail SweetRelish@socal.rr.com

You may choose among the patterns that I have available from a variety of designers. Some patterns may be viewed in my customer gallery  page on their finished quilts.  Prices range between .02 and .025 cents per square inch for pantograph (edge to edge) patterns depending on the difficulty and time involved for each one. Generally, the closer together the stitch lines and smaller the pattern, the more time it takes to do. 

*example sizes and prices at .02 are below

Some quilts call for 'custom' work, where no particular pattern is used; the quilter uses templates, freehands designs, lines and outlines as called for. This work is charged at .025 - .07 cents per square inch.   

Many of my customers let me choose their pattern and thread selection with stipulations like; no flowers, or not too frilly, or anything but red, etc. We can discuss your particular likes and dislikes and who the quilt is for to find the pattern and thread color that best suits it. 

I currently use American and Efird Perma Core thread almost exclusively. They have a wide variety of colors and I am consistently pleased with the results.  You may view the colors available here.  Please keep in mind that colors may appear differently due to monitor settings.  It is always best to make the final thread selection when viewing it with the quilt being considered.

Color changes and specialty thread are charged at $3.00 per bobbin.

Your quilt will be measured and you will be charged for the actual inches x the price category of the pattern you have chosen...It may be more or less than the examples. 

*I have a $50. minimum charge, a minimum $25. for additional panto borders, and a $20. set up fee. 

Also available is binding service @ .30/" if I prepare and finish the binding or .25/" if you prepare the binding that I sew on and finish.
