Look at the smile again. That is not mystery. That is the face of a woman who has just finished a border and is waiting for someone to notice. Mona Sewsa sits at a da Vinci treadle machine in her original gallery frame, and the little plaque underneath says Resting Stitch Face, which settles a five-hundred-year argument.
She is not alone on the Sew Extra Soft Tees. Ruth Sewder Ginsburg brings the lace collar and the verdict. Queen Eliza Stitch rules a very orderly stash. Joan of Sew went to battle for a fat quarter. Florence Needle-Gale tends to the wounded seams, Sister Seams-a-Lot has taken a vow of one more block, and the Quilter of Liberty holds her torch up high and her seam ripper higher.
The rest of the collection is the pieced face itself: Cheeky, Patch, Strawman, Bowow, Zip It, Stitch Face, Snark and Garden Stitch, each one a patchwork-eared portrait of a mood you have had.
Every one of them is soft enough to sleep in, which is exactly what the name Sew Extra Soft Tees is telling you. Wear the portrait. Keep the face.
