I was interested in commissioning someone to make me a custom 2 piece dress: nothing overly complicated in pattern and/or design but obviously not something that I can do myself.
As my 1st choice was busy I shot an email to "choice#2" to see if what I wanted could be done. I was told yes it can be done but :
1. I needed to send over the body to make sure it's a perfect fit - I am okay with this as I have done it before
2. I needed to supply the specified fabric colour for the dress to be made - I was surprised this was a requirement as it was my assumption that you (the person I would be paying the services for would source the coloured fabric). I just need to tell you what I need and how much it's going to cost me.
Although I was expecting to pay a pretty penny for the work from choice#2 - I did not expect I would also need to source the fabric for the commission.
Sure - I depend on your expertise, but what's next - you'll need me to send you my sewing machine too?
I think I'll just have to wait for my 1st choice to be available (like I have much of a choice).
Rant over - lol
Have a great week ahead everyone.
