I know that as a seamstress for both everyday clothing and SCA clothing people really don't have a clue as to what it takes.  I know that when I make an SCA Gown or outfit and the client gets me all the cloth and bits that it takes, (which as we all know can be a ton) I usually charge between $50 to $60 for labor, that is just labor.  For a complete gown or outfit it is much more.  People just don't seem to understand the cost or the time it takes to make something.  Some of the outfits take upwards of 20 hours to make and that is by machine not by hand.
