Fortunately, all you really have to do is say "no." After all, would you want to work with her again? Probably not.

I completely understand your feelings about having second-rate work attributed to you. I have similar problems sometimes -- I'll do a project for a client, and since my stuff is "work for hire" that client owns it all as soon as the check clears. That client may then edit, re-work, and otherwise totally mangle the masterpiece I've delivered to him...and still say that I wrote it. Chances are he won't go out and tell people I wrote it, thank goodness, but I can't use it for my own portfolio. I have so many samples I'm posting in my portfolio in the "raw" form, as submitted to the client, instead of the pretty final piece, because the client screwed it up before sending it to print. Frustrating.
