Conclusion to "radical cutting at the Del," checking out Annie Finch's outstanding poetry book (starting a discussion group), holiday writing prompt, and more...
In the 70s, I sewed my own clothes because I couldn’t find clothes to fit. Laying out a pattern on the fabric seems straight forward. It’s not. Use the diagrams supplied with the pattern, until you’ve worked with many different fabrics. Cutting the narrative is akin to shaping the outfit to the person’s exact measurements. It’s close & personal.
Congratulations Suzanne Johnston!!
Emotion vs Sentiment. Thanks for this reminder, Alison! Also: here’s to more than a year of friendship and your egg-nog! ❤️
Wishing you a Happy Christmastime. I've never been brave enough to try my hand at poetry. Maybe a goal for 2023?
