My Bonnet Factory

I'm sewing away for my first crat fair.

A few summers ago

people regularily stopped me in the playground

and asked me about the bonnets

the shorties were sporting.

Maybe I'll get lucky and sell a few.

(made from Rae's pattern)



Still, this will have to be for fun

rather than moola

because

I can't figure out how anyone can make a living

hand sewing these days.

Things are so inexpensive with globalization

mass production, factories and sweat shops.

This will definitely need to be for joy.

Well, who doesn't want a little joy?

I do, I do.

Yes please!
