FAQs
- What should the customer know about your pricing (e.g., discounts, fees)?
Prices range from .035/sq.in for "Edge-to-Edge" (E2E) patterns to .045/sq.in for personally designed, detailed, custom quilting. I specialize in custom quilting designs that highlight the quilt pattern, fabric, and/or applique without overwhelming the quilters' piecing work. I provide batting of your choice (80/20 blend, washable wool) at my wholesale prices. Binding pricing is extra for make and machine applied, or hand-stitched. A detailed price is quoted and agreed upon before quilting begins. Free shipping to and from my shop if the customer is located outside the Phoenix area.
- What is your typical process for working with a new customer?
After seeing the quilt, I will suggest E2E or custom quilting. We mutually agree on the pattern, batting, binding, thread color(s) and price before quilting begins.
- What education and/or training do you have that relates to your work?
I've been an IT professional for over 25 years, giving me deep expertise designing custom patterns using a CAD/CAM-type program for my long-arm quilting machine. Quilts I make for myself and/or favorite charities have won first-place/best-of-show ribbons at State Fairs and quilt-show competitions.
