Machine Quilting Prices
I have a pricing structure based on the complexity of the quilting which is requested and the size of the quilt top itself.
The Prices below are in Australian dollars..
Calculating the size of the quilt top
I calculate the size of the quilt top by measuring the length and width of the quilt through the centre in inches
For example; The length of the top is 82 inches and the width is 80 inches
I mutiply 82 x 80 = 6560 sq inch then divide by 144 = 45.55 sq ft.
Once the size of the quilt is calculated, then the cost of the quilting is going to be, dependant on how complex you want the quilting design to be, based on the prices below.
