I chickened out. Just asked for £50 to cover fabric etc. One of the seven stockings is a gift from me for the new baby , but £50 for the other 6 is a bargain, I know, so why do I feel bad for taking the £50?
DH was annoyed that I asked for so little, but she is a good friend. I think she knows I love sewing ,so thinks it’s ok just to cover the costs. It’s so awkward, because she and others know it’s a hobby, not a business, so I don’t think they think about paying me anything for my time.
