Kristie's Machine Quilting

After several requests for my Machine Quilting Price List and Quilting Designs, I decided to make it easier for everyone and put in on my blogs.

Kristie's Machine Quilting
Louisa KY
SIZE ----------------QUILTING ------BINDING
Crib-up to 45x60 ------$25.00 -----------$10.00
Twin-up to 66x90 -----$40.00 -----------$15.00
Full-up to 81x96 -------$50.00 -----------$20.00
Queen-up to 90x106 ---$60.00 -----------$25.00
King-up to 110x110 ----$75.00 -----------$25.00
* If the quilt top measures between the sizes listed above then it falls into the next price bracket.
Please supply lining, batting and binding fabric. (Batting can be supplied by me if you wish) You lining needs to be at least 6" larger than the quilt top on each side. If special thread is wanted you must supply it.
BATTING & BACKING
If you wish you may purchase your BATTING and BACKING from me. All backings and battings are reasonably priced. Prices depend on what I have in stock at the time. Battings that I usually try to keep are WARM & NATURAL and LOW LOFT POLY.
BINDING
Many people like to do their own bindings but if you choose for me to do your binding, please supply enough extra fabric of your choice for the binding. Binding will be sewn on the front by machine and folded over and sewn to the back by HAND. Or if you choose to do the hand work on the back yourself, I can cut the binding and sew it on the front for a small charge.
QUILTING
As you know we quilters are NOT perfect! :) I will do my best to keep your top free of pleats and puckers. Please understand that it is VERY hard to quilt out wrinkles, fullness, or tightness that has been pieced in the top.
Following you will find the quilting pantographs that I have available. Please indicate when sending your quilt top the design of your choice. If not specified, I will use a design of my choice which I feel best suits your quilt. New designs will be added as they become available.
*Customer must pay for return shipping.

hmmm...I'm not sure why some of the designs came out larger than the others.
Thank you very much for your interest in my machine quilting.

Donkey's Quilt

This is a small quilt that I made for my cat to lay on! He has this certain spot that he likes so I thought it would be perfect for him.
The pantograph that I used is called "Blackberry" I LOVE that design!
It is certainly something that I will use again on some of my own.

John Deere Quilt

This is a simple quilt that I have put together for my 3yr old nephew for Christmas. He loves John Deere so I thought this would be perfect for him.

I used the pantograph called "Frequency" on it. It is a very simple design but I didn't want to do anything too busy on the quilt.

Now I just need to do the binding and it will be finished.

Friendship Baskets

This lap quilt is called "Friendship Baskets" I had planned on making a larger quilt but I got tired of making the blocks for it! :) I still need to add the binding on it, but I will get to that soon.
I used the quilting pantograph called "Flower Power" I like that design.


Hopefully, I can get another one on the frame soon!

Green Mountain Star

This is another one of mine. It is called "Green Mountain Star" This is completely different than my usual style. I quilted this one with the "river run" quilting design which looks like running water. You can't see it in the photo but the fabrics used in the stars has water drops on them.
I have quilted a few more over the past few months but now sure what I did with the photos unless they are on my other camera.

Arkansas Crossroads

This is one of my quilts. It is called "Arkansas Crossroads" I love the fabrics and the pattern in this quilt. I quilted it with the "Blowing Leaves" design.
I think this one really looks like Fall.

Gifts for my sister!

This is a 4 patch pink and brown quilt that I made. It is quilted with a small stipple. I love the colors in it. I just gave this one to my sister for her 25th birthday. She loved it.
Here is a photo of the above quilt and a crib size quilt made from leftovers. On the crib quilt I practiced a quilting design called "Angel Wings" I gave this quilt to my sister also for her little poodle that she treats like a child.
She was very happy with both.

Bluestone Tumble

This is a donation quilt that I did. I use these to practice new pantographs on. This is quilted with the "Springy Thing" design.
This quilt is a pattern that I got out of a magazine a few years ago. The pattern is called "Bluestone Tumble" I think is is called that because of the fabric used on the quilt in the magazine. I just made mine from scraps.
It is quilted using the "Random Leaves" quilting design. I love how this one turned out too.

Two Customer Quilts

Here are two customer quilts that I did for a fellow blogger! She did such a wonderful job piecing these it was an honor to quilt them for her.

She wanted the same flat stipple quilting design on both quilts. This quilting is very tight, less than an inch apart. I just love how they turned out.

This is the pieced back for this quilt.
There was a ton of quilting in these two quilts but worth it all in the end, they turned out beautiful!

Two More Projects Finished!

This is a simple quilt that I quilted for Hunter. He is crazy about the Marines because Richard is an ex-Marine. I did a large stipple on this one. He loves it and so does Donkey, the cat!
This is a Fall Tablerunner, that my friend Lisa made for me. She pieced the top and I quilted and did the binding on it.
I really love how it turned out and I now have it on my table!!!

Two More Of My Quilts

Here is two more of my little quilts. This first one was made from leftover blocks of a larger quilt that I have not quilted yet. The Spiderweb block. I did a simple small stipple on this one.
This is my Lone Star quilt. I really like this one! I also did a small stipple on this one too.
I have the bindings done on both of these.

Deb's Quilt

This is a quilt that I quilted for my Aunt Deb. Her granddaughter saw one something like this in a catalog and wanted it. A very simple black and white design so she decided on a simple large stipple quilting design.
This quilt measures to be between a full and a queen. Her granddaughter was very pleased with it.

Windmills

I am going to try to catch up on some quilting posts! I was without internet for about 3 months so now I am going to try to post SOME of the quilts that I have quilted during that time.

This one is called "Windmills" It is one of my quilts, a scrappy quilt that I love.

I did a very tight and flat stipple on it. The quilting is less than one inch apart. After I washed it, it became so soft, crinkly, and cuddly. I love how it turned out.

My First Customer Quilt!

My first customer quilt!!! Boy was I nervous! This quilt belongs to Lisa, when she came down in April she brought this quilt top for me to quilt. I wanted to get some practice in before I did it. But now that it is done, it feels good!!! :)


Lisa did such a wonderful job on the piecing and the fabrics are just beautiful!


Now off to pin another quilt on the frame....

Lots Of Love!

I finished quilting my "Lots Of Love" quilt! This one was a good size quilt! Has a total of 238-4inch hearts!! This was a top that I had made several years ago!

Here is a photo of the quilting on the back! I just did a large stipple on it. Glad to have another one done! Well actually, I still need to do the binding on it!I have a few quilts now that need binding. I was completely caught up on the bindings but at least I have enough now to keep me busy for a while!!!
