Got mine in the mail today and have been reading it this evening. Some wonderful words to savor. A lovely looking product as well. Congrats to all involved but especially to Maryann.

Vintage Poetry
The challenge: how best to capture the painstaking craft evident in Credo for the Checkout Line in Winter
I couldn't improve on this:
Recall the coaxing curve to curve. The pinning.
The fingers teasing all into compliance.
The maddening cling and fray of satin lining.
The stay-stitching, the trim of seams, the turn.
The whipstitch as it cinches a final closure.
The way, at last, it all reverts to pattern.
.........................(excerpt from Vintage Pattern)
Vintage: A season's yield of wine from a vineyard (Word Web)
Vintage poetry, Maryann.
