I am retired and I don't feel like people who want you to make things should be giving you a time limit, when they want it done. Working for free should be just that.
When I was working that was different, now I am my own boss and there are somedays, that I am just not in the mood to sew or quilt.
I have family that think, if they give me an idea for something they want made you can just whip it out. Most of the time it is something they want but don't have anything but an idea of the time and material.
I am sure we are all in the same boat with this. Wheather your retired or not.
