Quilting on Zoom

I take classes in quilting on Zoom;
Quite a challenge, you’d likely assume,
But we all seem to know
How to basically sew,
Which allows us to grow and to bloom.

Before Covid, we met face to face
At a spacious spread-out downtown space.
Now we’re all on a screen
With a weekly routine,
Each ensconced in her very own place.

Our instructor, who’s really the best,
Runs the class from her home way out west.
Several others have moved
But technology’s proved
That our questions are all still addressed.

So we sit and we stitch and we share,
Holding projects so we can compare
What we’ve finished, with pride;
The computer will hide
My mistakes, for which I have a flair.

COVID destroyed many things but adaptation has found ways to keep us together even when far apart. Wonderfully written.
