the pansy's chin drips
with beads of water
once it has guzzled
its fill of rain

Reducing a too large shirt and no sew poncho.
Greetings all.
I thought I would share the lazy way I made this lovely XL soft shirt fit me, and show you my no- sew poncho.
Here is the sleeve hanging off the shoulder and over my hand.
I liked the fit of the body, just needed to adjust the sleeves but was too lazy to remove them. What does a lazy person do? Take some small tucks in the shoulder of course!
And another tuck just above the sleeve cuff...
Ta da! You would never tell!
See my new boho skirt with embroidery and also the cute boho style belt as well!
(Shirt, skirt and belt all thrifted)
Just to round it all off and because I was a little chilly during this wet day, I grabbed a piece of knit fabric from my stash. It was a remnant and I've never found good use for it but I loved the velvet texture of the diamonds. Pinned a brooch and it became a poncho! (No sew poncho- knits don't need edge finishing) It's found its place.
Now isn't my owl just the sweetest little thing?
All made of wood.
Hope you are inspired to create and play. What do you think?
Love,
Jazzy Jack

losing your grip?
feeling rootless?
you are in beautiful company
lie back
and waggle your toes in the air

Stromlo scopes sit
lining the ridge
silent white stubs
like empty Lego knobs
waiting
in the rain
