How thankful should I be? A friend did some sewing for me..?

She took my old bunny suit and used it as a template to make me a new bunny costume, which I use to volunteer as the Easter Bunny for kids, I gave her the fabric and the puffy tail and she added thread and time and turned it into the best bunny suit ever. I want to get her a gift card to thank her, but don't know what denomination to get. The original costume cost $50, but that was only 'cause the place was going out of business. And she didn't do the head, just the body. (But she did OFFER to do the head- she's a great person)

Try to estimate how many hours she put into the costume. Multiply that by what you deem as a fair "wage" per hour.





$50 seems to be about right, it is a nice amount and definitely indicates that you are grateful for her work well done.





What a great friend she is!
Reply:Get her a $30 gift card.
Reply:I would get her a gift certificate at a place you know she shops.....even a grocery store will work.





People have a hard time accepting money for a good deed. It kind of cheapens the generosity. A gift card is more of an exchange of gifts........her time and your appreciation.





Doesn't sound like she did it for any other reason than she was skilled enough and cared enough to help you out. NIce lady!
