Harvest

 My vegetable gardening failure has reached almost legendary status.

 But I can grow things on my sewing machine, in the fertile soil of my spare room, on a bed of felt.

 I water with thread and feed with velvet.

 I judiciously prune the leaves (splitting infinitives as I skip merrily through the pumpkin patch) 

and when they are ripe I can pick them.

 then lay them out for quality control.

 As in life there are a couple of left handers.

 Ten fat pumpkins all made into brooches for Halloween chic.

 Available here by request or in my etsy shop for slightly more.

 Pick a number. any number.

All different.
