Kristin's Quilts
If you are drawn to one of the quilts you see on this website, then please
call or e-mail me so we can discuss making a quilt that is right for you.
You may like a certain style of design, but want different
colors, or you may want a different size.
I don't make duplicates, so your quilt will
not be an exact copy of something I've done before, but it is helpful if
you can tell me which of my quilts you especially like.
Take a
little time to imagine
what your quilt might look like.
Quilts are very personal, and you probably have a
picture in your mind of the quilt you want. Take some time to daydream
about your perfect quilt. Whether you choose me or someone else to sew
your quilt, it will be helpful if you can describe what you are looking
for.
What do you want your quilt to express? Are
there symbols or images that come to mind when you think about your quilt?
What emotions or ideas would you like the design to convey?
Once I can picture what I think you want, I
will draw up several designs for you to choose from, and send them to you
by email or letter. You might want to suggest some changes, which is
fine.
Think about how much you wish to
pay.
Quilt prices
vary greatly depending on the design, on the
complexity of detail and embellishment in the quilt, and the amount and
style of the quilting stitches. You can get some idea of my prices by
looking on my Quilts for
Sale page. The size of a quilt also affects the price, of course.
Once size and design of the quilt are
decided, I will offer several price options. The lower price quilt would be sewn
with more simplified techniques and quilted more simply, while a quilt at
the higher price would have lots of detailing and embellishment, a more
complicated design, more hand-sewing, perhaps 3-D pictorial elements or
hand-painted details, and more complex quilting.
. You can specify the price, and I will make
a quilt to suit. All of my quilts are original designs, and are well-sewn
and beautiful, no matter what the price.
.How big you want your quilt to be?
You might want to measure the wall
where you will hang your new quilt, or the bed it will cover. Size and
price are related of course. Bigger quilts cost more,
Get in touch with me, and we can
work together to figure out colors, design, and price.
Ordering a quilt "long-distance" is a little
more complicated than doing it in person, but phone calls and e-mails will
smooth the process, and I can send you digital photos occasionally as your
quilt is being sewn.
