Final post about this quilt: Bight Side I+II
You can find out more about my progress and process there.

Costs are calculated via my Quilt Price Calculator: Factors are the size & pieces mentioned above, the presets for a twin quilt plus 10€ in extras (pattern).

Normally when using a longarm quilter, I have to reconsider how to do calculations. This time, Emanuela did the work for free, as we want to donate these quilts. I also have no idea on the price of her batting. So I kept my usual batting presets.
