Hope your mother had a wonderful day… With you as a daughter it would be impossible not to, I think. Your poem goes in a thousand different directions – though metaphorical in quilting I see so many other things you are saying, sparking memories of my own love and mother. That’s how a true poet touches emotion Shawn. Your vision and ability to create the reader’s vision of it is just simply wonderful….

My mother was a professional seamstress for many years. She took up quilting in her retirement. She has a scary amount of fabric!
