Don't worry, Polly! They were sentimental tears, not sad ones. And
yes, please do come out of that closet. I trust it's the one with your
stash and that I can sneak in while your back is turned to get me a
tissue?

Well, I have a 20 yo, currently college student, but she has a bit of
maturing to do yet, I 'm afraid. Although she expects maturity in her
bfs and is always disappointed. She is a Spanish/Italian Education
major. Maybe after she graduates and has to join the real world?

father. And he also loves quilts and respects those that make them.

Maybe we need to start matching up our family members. You know RCTQDS -

Denise, would you consider sending your DS to Iowa? I have a niece who's
the
right age and looking -- and she likes quits (in fact, when she was three
or
four, I made her a yellow and white Irish chain with hearts appliquéd in
the
white spaces).

I think the Irish Chain will be a wedding gift to
DS if and when he ever finds the right girl, he's 27 and still looking.
He's 6' tall, college degree, muscular, it's gotta happen pretty soon,
right?

well! You're learning *way* too quickly.

OK, ladies and gentlemen!

I have three daughters!
2 of which are of marriageable age.

The eldest is 23, 5 foot 6, shoulder length dark brown-auburn hair,
brown-green eyes, 38-29-39. She is currently living in Pennsylvania
(near Girard) and working at a doughnut factory. She just broke up
with her young man because he was more fond of video games than
anything and would spend 6-8 hours a day on them She enjoys reading,
long walks, creative writing and attempts assorted crafts but hasn't
found one to suit her yet.

The second is 21, 5 foot 9, long blonde hair, blue eyes, 42-28-38.
She is currently living in DD#3's bedroom, works at the mental health
unit of the local hospital as a program assistant, and part time at a
group home as a personal care aide. She enjoys reading, shooting
pool, gadding about, and finding emotionally abusive a-holes that her
mother will not approve of to date.

DD#1 is a decent cook and worse at housecleaning than me. DD#2 is
almost as bad a cook as my mother, but an excellent housekeeper. Both
are trying to save up money to go to college. DD#1 isn't sure what to
major in as she wants to be a writer, DD#2 wants to be a psychologist.

OK!
Who's got a son (or who is single and looking) that wants to take one
of these lovely young ladies off my hands before they _both_ move back
home?
This could be tough, at one point DD#2 passed up a Chippendales dancer
that was working his way through law school because she was seeing a
pizza delivery boy who was in jail on traffic violations. (I kid you
not!)

I would like to have them settled down before DD#3 (age 14) and DS
(age 5) get to that "troublesome" stage. If DD#3 weren't younger than
she is I would already be tearing my hair out!
I am willing to pay shipping and do bridal sewing in this cause.

that was working his way through law school because she was seeing a

Oh, this made me laugh out loud, on a night when I really needed the
laughs ... although I bet it didn't make you laugh at the time!

Somebody, somewhere, somehow, should work that one into a movie
script.

Can't help out in the matchmaking department, though -- good luck!

You know someone who wants this?
http://home.stny.rr.com/jazzmanian/janquilt.JPG

It is currently gracing the bed of a divorced 39-year-old German man who
lives in Albuquerque. He's very nice, works with computers and does a
lot of online gaming. He's also rather shy.

I'm willing to play matchmaker for him. And yes, if he ever gets
married again, I'll probably make him a quilt.

The QI, on the other hand, is mine, and not up for grabs. Poor Pepe has
changed houses enough, and has found his safe harbor at last.
