You also could gently suggest that you can't do her projects - that cuts into your valuable 'quilt therapy' time :)
The problem is I really have no desire to be her friend. We really have nothing in common besides the fact we are both married to Marines. I just don't want to hurt her feelings or cause stress for my husband at work.

Thank you for all the replies!
If you're sure you don't want to be friends, just hand her a bill with the completed repair. Charge A LOT. Your time is worth at least $50 per hour, billed in one hour increments with a one hour minimum.
