Longarm Quilting Services Now Available at Redfield Quilt Shop!
Redfield Quilt Shop now offers digital edge-to-edge (E2E) longarm quilting services on our APQS Lucey. E2E, also known as a Pantograph, is a single pattern used on the entire quilt top. The rows interlock to create an all-over quilting pattern.
Rates
Quilting: The price of quilting is determined by the size of your quilt top in square inches (length x width). My rate is $0.03 per square inch (width x length x 0.03, plus sales tax). There is a minimum longarm fee of $50 for small quilts.
E2E/Pantographs: A single pattern is included in the cost of quilting, if pattern that is chosen is one I already have. If you want a pattern I don't have, I will split the cost of the pattern with you. The cost of patterns is usually $12 - $17.
Thread: Superior So Fine thread is included in the cost of quilting. I have a variety of thread colors, but if there is a specific color needed that I do not have, there will be a delay so I can order the thread.
Batting: I use Quilter's Dream Blend for Machines 70% cotton, 30% polyester batting. Packages can be purchased at Redfield Quilt Shop.
Additional Services
Trimming: Trimming of your quilt can be done after quilting is complete for a flat fee of $10.
Binding: I offer machine binding services for $0.40 per linear inch. The price of binding is determined by the size of your quilt top in linear inches (perimeter x 0.40). Binding is machine sewn on both sides using coordinating thread. You can provide your binding already made, or I can make binding from your backing or a fabric you provide for a flat $10 service charge. If needed, fabric can be purchased at Redfield Quilt Shop for binding. Quilt trimming included in the cost of binding services.
Payment is due upon completion of your quilt.
Preparing Your Quilt Top & Backing
My goal is to provide excellent service with a quick turn-around time. In order to do that, you be need to ensure that your quilt top and backing is prepared properly.
Quilt Top: Trim loose threads from the front and the back. Press your quilt top. Make sure your top is squared up. Check that all seams are sewn and secure. Label the top of your quilt if it's directional.
Backing: Your backing fabric should be 8" larger, in length and width, than your quilt top. For example if your quilt top is 60" x 70" than your backing should be 68" x 78". If your backing is pieced, use 1/2" seam allowances and press open. Press your backing. Label the top if it's directional. Several 108" wideback fabrics are available at Redfield Quilt Shop.
When your quilt top is ready to be quilted, please email me at redfieldquiltshop@gmail.com to schedule a time to deliver your quilt and find out current wait time.
