A) I don't sew.
B) Wife could probably sew, but would be slow (a slow sewer) since she hasn't done it in ???
So, DS needs patches sewn on his Cub Scout uniform. There are 5 patches... 3 are the troop number, 1 is the council patch (sort of large), and 1 is ??.
The wife of a coworker offered to sew the patches on for us and will turn it around in 2 days so he can have it for his first camping trip.
She (through coworker) didn't offer a price, he just told me "whatever you feel like".
My first thought was $25. Does that seem high to anyone? She will apparently be using a machine, not hand sewing if that makes a difference.
BTW, I tried sewing one patch on this morning, got about two stitches in and was ready to tear up the shirt AND patch. I don't have patience for that kind of thing.
