It begins with
a chair
a swivel chair
gliding with ease
spinning creations
behind me
a table
to plan
arranging
rearranging
to my right
a cutting board
a rotary blade
here I shape
quilted dreams
before me
a machine
and thread
vision stitched
into form
to my left
an iron
a board
pressing seams
of my design
a spiral turning
scraps
into form
piecing a quilt
piecing my life
