About the Artist – Cathy Phaneuf
I create a wide variety of sewn items, including quilts, table runners, wall hangings, placemats, totes, and purses. One of my greatest passions is free motion quilting—a technique where the sewing machine forms a basic stitch while I guide the fabric manually to craft intricate and eye-catching designs.
I’d be delighted to create a quilt just for you! I typically charge the cost of quilt shop-quality fabric, plus a modest fee for labor. All quilting is done by me personally on my longarm machine.
As a full-service longarm quilter, I work without a computerized setup—everything is stitched by hand using pantographs (paper design patterns) or custom free motion quilting. My pricing is:
- Pantograph quilting: 2 cents per square inch (Length × Width × 0.02)
- Custom quilting: starting at 3 cents per square inch (Length × Width × 0.03)
- Minimum fee: $40 for baby quilts, wall hangings, and table runners
