Recently had a friend tell me that her son needs about 500 shirts for a client 
that they provide welcome baskets for.  She tells me that an embroiderer 
charges him $1.50 for logos and/or wording placed on shirts regardless of the 
number of stitches or the number of shirts.  I have been told that we should 
charge $1.00 per thousand stitches for retail orders and 50 to 60 cents for 
wholesale orders otherwise I would not make any money in the end.  At that 
pricing I cannot compete with his present supplier. I am a one person home 
hobby business (so far) with a six needle Babylock that I love, bought as a 
precursor to an Amaya which I really want if my business takes off which 
probably won't happen if I can't make any money or get new customers.    Any 
thoughts on this??   By the way I have learned so much from this group, even 
tho I have a Babylock your suggestions have been very helpful.  Thank you all.
