Welcome to October 19, 2021 and to Fandango’s One-Word Challenge (aka, FOWC). I will be posting each day’s word just after midnight Pacific Time (U.S.).
Today’s word is “remnant.”
Write a post using that word. It can be prose, poetry, fiction, non-fiction. It can be any length. It can be just a picture or a drawing if you want. No holds barred, so to speak.
Once you are done, tag your post with #FOWC and create a pingback to this post if you are on WordPress. Please check to confirm that your pingback is there. If not, please manually add your link in the comments.
And be sure to read the posts of other bloggers who respond to this prompt. You will marvel at their creativity.
I was a wooden table
Glorious with four legs
Now I’m just a remnant castoff
Flat on ground (no legs)
Fret not. I will arise…
Given the right prompt….

Ah, happy memories of my great grandmother making posh outfits for our dollies out of the remnants of cloth she’d made dresses for us. We had the best dressed dolls on the estate.

So you and your dolls would match! That’s cute. 🙂

I used to make clothes for dolls with remnant material. Thanks for the reminder! I appreciated my grandmother who made clothes for people… and made complex quilts and afghans and even dolls (not the kind I made cloths for except once). [My other grandmother did different things (and died while taking the bus home from bingo); I appreciated her too.]

Wonderful memories to have, but sorry to hear about your other grandmother. Must have been a shock to everyone.

It was sudden, and I miss her. But, the way I look at it, she was happy and active.

That is a happy memory to have. I remember my great grandmother hanging off the roundabout picking up stones like us kids were dong. She was in her 80s and fell off, but got right back on and did it again!
