Yes it does!!!!! That is why I never make anything without a written contract and a 50% nonrefundable deposit.

Caroline, sorry this happened to you.
I have seen some of your lovely bags and table toppers.
Do you have a website or online store?

This hasn't happened to me, but yes, it would bother me greatly if I'd been commissioned to make something, put the time, effort, and $$ into it, and the 'customer' disappeared! Sorry this has happened to you, Caroline, but thanks for the heads-up to the rest of us should we ever take on a customer. Rhonda said it well!

It was something I had already made,and the person did contact me now and all is ok.But several times I have had people back out so I am careful.
