The only advice I can give you is to stand in front of a mirror and practice saying "NO" over and over, because people will come out of the woodwork and ask you to embrodier everything under the sun and of course they expect it to be no charge.

Embroider a sign that says "will work for thread" then when you are asked to make something give the person a shopping list of brand preferred, colors and quantities etc, also don't forget the stabilizers needed. Inform them that you get to keep any extras as payment. That way you can build your thread and stabilizer stash.
