After I posted a response I thought how smug my response sounded. That was not my intention. As I stated in my post we have two sets of friends I never charge anything for quilting or sewing. They on the other hand NEVER take advantage of this. In return for my sewing, they also help us at the drop of a hat! When my husband was very sick during his cancer recovery they helped care for his very intimate medical needs and never batted an eye. I feel so blessed to have them in my life that I would never be able to charge them for sewing in clear conscious. Please accept my apology if I offended you.
