Pricing and Ideas

Many sewing services are available, from simple alterations to the most personalized of items.  My specialties are in embroidery, monogramming, applique, home goods, and basic sewing projects. 

Paper goods, such as cards and scrapbooks are also available for custom order.

Monogramming and Embroidery: Total prices on most Items 

• Design up to 4x4     $6 
• Design up to 5x7     $8
• Design up to 8x10   $12

Embroidery on Bags/Backpacks

• $6-$11 

Applique

• $4-$5 per character

I have designs and fonts to suit any need: animals, holiday, girly-girl, cartoon, decorative motifs, and much more.  If I do not have something that meets your needs, I would be happy to find it for you!   

Pricing Information

The prices listed are general, but for rush orders, there may be a nominal fee. 

Discounts are available for frequent customers. 

For combination applique/embroidery designs or for multi-layer designs, additional charges may apply.

While I promise to price each item at the fairest price for you, 
I also must account for my own preparation and work time.  
Thank you for your business!
