I LOVE your haikus. What gets me is that when people find out I sew, they say “Will you make me ? It will give you more pratice.” Ummmm…I get enough practice sewing for myself, thank you.

Oooh– good one! I’ll have to keep that retort in my arsenal.

What’s worse is people who sew asking me to sew for them because they don’t have the time to sew for themselves. What a coincidence, I don’t have the time to sew for them either.

Oh my gosh! I am laughing so hard. Arm hair, stout and prunish…. How can you take offense when it was so funny?! All your stuff is adorable and your blog is hilarious. Obviously this person is on drugs…I can’t imagine how someone can lable you as stout. I must be a bus!

Actually, I was a little bit flattered by the comment that I look “stout on top.” If there’s anywhere that I could stand to have a little more stoutness, it’s definitely on top! It would eliminate the need for the tedious SBA :)

Just found your blog. I love this haiku as it sounds like my youngest daughter…. everything I make she wants. Like duh, I make it for me because I like it too. I tell her that if I make something that I do not like I will let her have it.
