t'was a few weeks before Christmas and in my head was a plan
To make all of my Christmas gifts by my own hand. Away to my scrap box in a flashI did fly. with patterns in my head and a twinkle in my eye. I cut and I sewed as merry as an elf. Making things for others and not for myself. A quilted vest for a teenage niece. Quilts for the grandparents with love sewn in each piece. Quilted covers for aunt's tabletops. Away I go with hardly a stop. On scissors,on needles, on thimbles and thread, Oh, hurry I must, for Christmas day is ahead. A quilted diaper bag for the baby so new. I may even quilt Santa a coat before I'm through, Quilted bedspreads for Mother and Sis. I still have a few left on my list. Cushions with quilted tops and potholders done. It's now Christmas Eve and I have a gift for each one. So I sprang to my Volks wagon and quite a clatter. The neighbors ran to the windows to see what was the matter. From one house to the other, I leaped like a dear. Leaving my presents and hopefully cheer. With best wishes to each for a Christmas so bright. A tired, happy quilter drove away in the night. Merry Christmas to ALL!!!!!!! From Bebe |
