Yup! I do have that problem, but you have to be realistic when charging, I usually state upfront how long it will take to make and the rough cost of materials and put some on top for more fabric! If it's too much then it's their decision to not have it. It's a skill you have like a plumber or carpenter, dress maker or cook they all charge. If it's for friends then I have "mates rates" but tell them not to quote that to some one else who may want the same item. It is a difficult one to decide on. Good luck. Oh could you make me one LOL!!!!
