good evening
I have been asked to make one plaited tie back for a 2 widths triple pleat door curtain,(lined only). I have no problems in doing this but I have not got a diddly squat clue on how much to charge. I am doing some other work for this customer using ready made curtains but that is another story, suffice to say think sow's ears, silk purse and you will get the picture. I am supplying everything except the main fabric. Do you think £25 is too much/too little or would you do it as a freebie in these trying times? I don't know why but i always fell guilty at asking for money especially when I know things are tight and she always buys cheapie ready mades for me to then work miracles. Having said that, I work full time 12hr night and day shifts, as well as run a home and family so my time is as precious as her money. Sorry, I got on my soapbox then.
Any comments would be appreciated.
Regards
Susie
