She did a terrible job, and did not do what I had requested. When I pointed out that she did not do what I had requested, she said she would have to charge me more to take the cushions apart and do what I had originally asked. When I told her that I did not think that was fair, she stopped answering my e-mails. I finally caught up with her at a craft show in the square, and she told me that she did not get the 7 e-mails that I had sent her! Needless to say, I will never use her services again, and if any Villagers out that need this kind of work done, do not use her. The pillows that she sells from her booth are pretty, but just about anyone can make a pillow. She is not qualified to do more detailed work.
Furthermore -- emails do not get lost in cyberspace.

If you had the wrong address on them, they would have been returned to you.

In addition to her lousy work, I guess she's a liar!
