My brother works at an auction and he stopped by and brought me a HUGE box of quilting books and magazines..In one of the books there is a poem that I would love to share..I found this poem to be so true..
Quilting Fever
It's really not a sickness,
When you catch the bug,
You look upon a quilt and
Feel your heart a-tug,
you suddenly get the urge,
To try your hand at such,
And see how a quilt might look,
Made with your own special touch.
You piece a block together
And cannot seem to stop.
You want to keep on sewing
Till you've finished the top.
You put the layers together
And start your needle though.
You finally get the hang of it,
Even though it's new.
Now your really hooked
For you are the receiver
Of a fateful case of
"Quilting Fever"

Whoa! Ain't that the truth?! I've sure got that bug bad! I have to say I've passed it on to some of my best loved friends and family too. Thanks for the great poem to explain this terrible sickness that explains so much.
