It happened to me at Christmas but the second purse was for her daughter. But she insisted in buying it so I quoted a price and she agreed. Now she has friends who also want a purse like hers. I told her that I "might" have time to make some for her to show. the price will go up some. too much stress!

Another buddy makes those twirly crocheted scarves and she gave one to a mutual friend who asked for a second one in another color. Hmmm.

How do you handle this situation?

It's really very simple. If you want to do it and make money at it, figure your price and give the quote. They will either say yes or no. If you don't want to do it, just say no, I don't want to do it. I don't understand why everyone frets over this, no one is forcing you to do something you don't want to do......
