**You may supply your own batting, but I cannot guarantee the outcome of the thread tension. Quilter's Dream works flawlessly with my machine and thread so I highly recommend using it for a great result!
Thread Fee/Needles
The first 4 bobbins are included in the edge to edge sq. inch charge. Any additional bobbins used will be charged at $2.00 each. A new needle is also used for every quilt project.

Shipping
Shipping your top and backing to me: I live in Colorado, USA, and would be happy to receive your top and backing by mail. I'd recommend sending your materials enclosed in some kind of sack or bag to protect against possible moisture in transit and then placed in a hard-sided cardboard box. Make sure the box is securely taped and labeled clearly.
Return shipping: $25.00 flat fee per quilt for the first 2, regardless of quilt size. Any quilts over 2 in the same order will ship at no additional cost!
Other Costs
As mentioned above, batting is not included in the square inch price. I'm required by the State of Colorado to collect a 8.15% sales tax on batting or design/pantograph fees. There is no tax on shipping or quilting fees. No sales tax is charged to customers outside the state of Colorado.
I also charge $35/hr for my time spent ironing, clipping threads or repairing seams to get the quilt ready for quilting and for time and materials spent working in fullness on quilts that are not square. Those fees can easily be avoided by taking some time to prepare your quilt before giving it to me! :)
Payment
After the work is complete, I will email invoice you via Wave Accounting. I accept credit cards/bank transfers/Paypal, Zelle, Venmo, cash, and checks. I really do appreciate timely payments as that enables me to get your project(s) back to you right away.
