I don't blame you for not putting her business information on your personal
web space. Even if you don't use it for yourself, it is YOUR space. Plus
what happens if/when you no longer work for her?

What about getting some freebie space for her? There must still be some
places that offer you a small amount of free web space. I haven't looked
into it lately but maybe Geocities? Does she have a computer with Internet
access? If so, she just may have some space available to use.

(BTW, I belong to the EGA and am quite familiar with Project Linus. Do you
work for a quilt shop? Is your newsletters for the quilting guild? There is
a Yahoo Group available for guild editors. You might find that also a
helpful resource. Contact me out of the group for information.)
