It was a few baby blanket projects- simple, no fit required. For complex fitting, I would probably decline, but perhaps try to help out if a simple garment were needed. Now that I have new grandbabies to sew for, though, I would be reluctant to take on much more, and would explain about the time (that I maybe do not have!)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1904158839021162039.post-43832607686714253472008-09-25T14:11:00.000-04:002008-09-25T14:11:00.000-04:00I recently started sewing again, purely for fun.

If asked to make something (hasn't happened yet but might), I'd decline for exactly that reason.<BR/><BR/>I LOVE to make gifts, but with a commission there's pressure to do it "right" to the client's standards, not to mine. Which they might think are a little odd.<BR/><BR/>Love your blog and projects, BTW. Keep coming across your pics on Flickr, "hey, that's nice... oh, it's Cultivated Life again." Gonna add you to my contacts over there.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
