| Just posting for first time! I have been suppling pattern information to a friend that has started a retail business. She comes to me with what she wants, such as a customer wants a set of queen sheets of a queen size duvet. She will supply the fabric and tells me how she wants it to look. I have to figure out the dimensions, and cutting and sewing instruction. Now she will use these items marketing tools. She takes pictures of them and puts it in her catalogue. I have just been giving her this information. What should I be charging her for all this information? |

Hi Debbie and welcome to Sew Whats New.  I wouldn't have a clue what to charge her. You are the one that figures out the specific dimensions, the methods of sewing and finishing. How long does it take to figure out a duvet with the look she wants. I think you are really super to do this for her, but you must charge fairly for your time and expertise. MaryW

Debbie, I am going to move this post to the business forum of sewing. Maybe we will get better results for you.
