Good responses. I agree that someone needing help with the littlest repairs is a great candidate for a beginner class. I've made the offer myself to teach a friend for free if she wants to bring over her project and do it with me the first time. I'm happy to share my time if someone really wants to learn. Usually, the person turns down the offer because they can't find the time. Then they start to appreciate how much time it takes me to do any sewing, even for my own family.
