No one asks me to mend for them. At 6 foot tall and 240 lbs., I don't get many requests like that. They just say really, that's interesting.

Oh. Did I mention I'm a 50 year old male?
That is too funny!
What is your secret?

I get the exact opposite response when I tell people I piece quilt tops. I once was asked to do all the textiles in a bedroom remodel: curtains, tailored bedspread, shams, bedskirt, shaped pillows, hem drapes, and am constantly asked to do alterations.

I am 6'2", 200lb. (or so :-) ) 51 year old male. And I snarl a lot. :-)

Aardie.
