Where did all the fat come from, the cellulite, the double chin, the dangle under the arms, the disappearing waist? Whatever happened to the lithe and slim young body? Middle age came and the grease set in.

pieces are seamed together by machine;
the word Grease has been machine quilted all over the piece to represent the dimples of cellulite.
