I pause for ginger ale and haiku. I’m enjoying listening to The Scorpio Races while ironing and sewing. Audio books don’t fit with all parts of quilting, at least with me, but I am enjoying this one.
seams lie flat at last
the machine zips the pieces
back together again.
When I’m working hard
there’s not much time to look out
and see the world there.
As I sit and sew
there is much time to ponder
on what it all means.
All these years, quilting
small pieces and thread bound up
in color and light.
