If they get snotty you do not want their business anyway. They would only critize.

Don't let it bother you. There is always a learning curve take your time practice with your and your friends quilts for now. Maybe down the road when you feel more confident. It sounds like you try for perfection. That is wonderful. I always try for that as well.

I have an embroidery machine people see them demonstrated and when ask for a complicated design they say well you on'y push a button and it does it all for you! NOT true. I just don't worry about it and politely tell them I am not interested but I know a couple professional embroidery stores that they can try.

I know what you mean on the embroidery. I made my sister a lorilee school bus design. 84 thread changes. I eventually sold the machine.
