She probably assumed that since you told her it was $30 for you, it would be $30 for her, not realizing that you would charge her for your time and the altered pattern.
I had no intentions of charging her for my time and altering the pattern.
Really? Well then I'm confused about why you'd charge her "how many hours per dress x $10 per hour".
