Default Re: Alterations

My profession is Alterations. I love it and I sew every day. Something happened this week and I want to know what my fellow seamstresses think. A client (and mom ) had a prom dress fitting. Next day mom calls and tells me she found someone who can do the hemming,etc for $30. Prom dress-6 layers! I had guesstimated$60. 3 hrs including 1 hr fitting. Dad picked up the dress and paid for the fitting . But they expected the layers to be pinned. Was I wrong to have taken my pins out? I dont think so.
