Reupholstering vs writing a book.

If you look at my pictures, you'll see a love seat I reupholstered a few times. I don't remember commenting on the similarities of doing that and writing a book. But it is the same plan. You find a plot/design/fabric, trace the pieces on the couch to cut from the fabric, like coming up with the outline of the story. Then you come to the sewing like writing, placing the pieces in the right place and sometimes having to redo an uneven stitch like editing your story several times. But overall when you are done with the project, you have a complete reupholstered love seat and a complete book. The two go hand in hand.
