I have a sewing machine and I still take stuff into my tailor to do any hemming, altering sizes its not that I can't do it I prefer not to because I find it frustrates me. Some of my friends figure I'll do it for nothing, and I've told them I don't do it because if is wrong or fabric tears I'd feel horrible, they can't seem to grasp what I'm saying sometimes. But good for you to say NO, I swear some think we're just free labor.
