minky and me...

in my last post
i declared
my love...
.
for minky
i know there were a few
of you
wondering
if i had lost
my mind
and i'll confess for a short time
i did
i was just so thrilled
with the feel
it's heavenly to work with
especially
when your manikin
is a three ring binder
that's right
the spine
the curves
the just right fit
perfection
what am i doing you wonder
well
just another part of our divine
connections i tell ya
last may
at the chamber of commerce
business to business exhibit
i met brea
and she developed this wonder product
called the story of me
a few months later
she asked me if my workers
at the store
might be able to help
stitch the fabric covers for her
absolutely
and so sarah and i have been
sewing up a storm
please go to brea's website
you may just want to order
a book or two
especially knowing
the hands now involved

my newest love...

the first time
ever
i saw your
.
...fluff
i was nervous
not sure how you would
treat the machine
it was magical
i needn't have worried
you responded with the ease
of melted butter
sliding thru my fingertips
with the gentle help of idt
you responded so evenly
you enveloped the mannequin
like
paint on a canvas
wrapping delicately
yet tightly
around the spine
taking the corners
with gentle ease
oh minky
how i love thee...
