I know sometimes that I have had trouble finishing up a project (yes, I KNOW you have a UFO's stashed at the back of the cupboard !!) It could be that you have had an injury, or the tiny hand-stitching is hard on your eyes. Perhaps you just can't find the time. Maybe you just love your quilt but are so SICK of looking at it and you are busting to get on with that new one. Do you have the pattern and all the fabric but find cutting fabric tedious or just physically too hard ? We all love a "jelly roll" or "charm square" quilt that we can just sit down and get on with sewing, but what about all those tricky triangles??
Because all quilts and patterns are different, it is difficult to set a standard price for cutting. If you have a pattern, I would be more than happy to quote a price for all the pieces to be cut. I understand that accurate cutting is crucial to a perfect finished product so I make sure that all of my cutting is as perfect as possible. Hand stitching, again, is difficult to price, but similarly, I am able to quote on that as well.
I do have standard prices for bindings to finish off your quilt... These are as follows:
a) To cut and make bindings from your supplied fabric, machine attach and then hand stitch to completion.....$18 / metre
b) To attach your ready-made binding to quilt, then hand stitch to completion...........................................................$14 / metre
c) To hand stitch binding that you have attached...............................................................................................................$12 / metre
That makes your average size single bed quilt.... a) $135, b) $105 or c) $ 90 (give or take, depending of course on the size)
I am happy to complete any size project and also will apply a label if you wish. Depending on work loads also, I would normally be able to have your finished product done within a week or so.
