Sewing It Up

... zigzag stitching around the
eyewall unravels with a
giggle of thunder. The clouds
unleash their stuffing which falls

in a flood of frustration.
Scissors of wind snip away
at my nerves as fast as I
sew them up: what a mess. Spent

the last six weeks on it. Can't
say I haven't tried: but the
beams are all crooked! The front
of the house is longer than

the back (that was the hard part).
Home-Ec teacher's going to
be mad: this looks nothing at
all like the McCall's pattern ....
