Frances Carleton #5 - LittleOldLadiesRUs

Six and a half inches
Four and a half inches
One professes love for
Three and a half
It’s simplicity
larger is more complicated
more demanding

There’s talk of multiples
numbers conquered
24
64
72
Only 12 at 12 inches

These greying ladies
gnarly arthritic fingers
frosting eyes
Sagging…
                  well you know.
Hard to imagine them in their prime
tie dyed flower children
‘I’ve totally done double digits’

Comparing fabric blocks
coffee at the quilting circle
