Knowing me, I may have tried to fulfill the request.
I guess I'm too eager to please. But I would not have taken it apart. I might have tried to applique the redesigned center block over the top of the other one. But I would have told him how tacky it would look, and if the university initials were that important, they may have agreed.
But I too would have been incredulous.
This is just Reason #154 in my list of why I don't sew for other people.
