In Our Own Language 16

Usually Nancy (my disabled sister-in-law) draws,
and I stitch her drawings,


but this time we laid the crayons down
and played with bits from my scrap bag.

Nancy placed the bits of fabric on fusible sheets,
and I took it from there

stitching in the car . . .

and under Adonis . . .

and under Mr. God (dog, in reverse) . . .

and under Dante.

It’s obviously a hit with the felines,
and Nancy seems to like it, too.
