Services & pricing

Straightforward prices, no surprises

Edge-to-edge longarm quilting is our main service, priced by the square inch so you can estimate it yourself before you ever book. Sewing machine service and repair is below. Everything listed is what we actually charge.

Edge-to-edge longarm quilting

Stitched on a Bernina Q20 with Q-matic computerized automation, so the design lands precisely and repeats evenly across the whole top. Thread is included. Custom quilting is by request only and considered case by case; we do not do ruler work, vintage quilt repair, handwork or hand binding.

What density means. A pattern's density is how much thread lands per square inch. Airy patterns leave loft, so the batting stays puffy and soft. Dense patterns stitch closer together, which takes longer on the machine and flattens the batting a bit for a firmer, more textured quilt. Neither is better, it depends on the look and feel you want. Dense patterns cost a little more because they take more time.

Typical turnaround is 2–3 weeks from the day we receive your top. Backing must be 4–6" larger than the top on every side. See the quilt prep checklist.

How a repair works. Submit a request in your portal, pick your machine model for an instant estimate and add a photo or two of the problem. Drop the machine off (or we arrange pickup), we confirm the category on the bench and you approve the estimate with one tap. If anything changes along the way, the revised estimate comes back to you for approval before we continue. When it's ready you get a notice with the invoice attached.

Signs your machine wants a service

  • Skipped stitches, thread nests under the fabric, or tension that won't settle
  • Squeaks, a heavier hand-wheel, or a "thunk" at the needle
  • Timing is off: needle hits the hook or bobbin case
  • It's been more than a year (or 100 hours) since the last clean and oil
  • Came out of storage, moved house, or hasn't run in months

All domestic machine types

We perform standard services on all domestic machine types. Bring the foot control, cord, bobbin case, bobbin and any accessories you have questions about.

Longarm heads are specialized machines, so we service them only on special request after we review and approve the model. Longarm service requires an in-home visit, and we make site visits within a 50 mile radius of Annapolis, MD.
