If a gorgeous client asks me for a diamond solitaire in a four-prong setting on a 2 millimeter shank, I'm not going to spend billable time drawing it.

When gorgeous blogger Susan of Une Femme d'un Certain Age asked for a customized version of my Siobhan perma-stacked stacking ring, I gave her a drawing.
