A while back one of our great quilters posted a really nice poem she did for someone who was giving a quilt away. Did anyone bookmark it?

This is not the poem that you are looking for, but one I came across to be given with a child's quilt.
This quilt is made of cloth and thread To place upon your little bed It’s not an heirloom just to keep But to lie upon as you count sheep Or perhaps the floor’s the perfect place For a doll and teddy bear picnic space. This quilt can be anything you dream From superman’s cape to the robe of a queen. Pretend it’s a raft adrift at sea Or just cuddle up when you watch TV So use it up and wear it out I promise I won’t yell or pout Just tell me when its days are through And I’ll make another just for you. |
Thanks for posting this, I am just about to gibe a child a quilt.

I LOVE this one. Thank you for the link....and I think it deserves to be seen again.
It's Your Quilt It's OK if you sit on your quilt. It's OK if your bottle gets spilt. If you swallow some air And you burp, don't despair, It's OK if you spit on your quilt. There are scraps old and new in your quilt, Put together for you on your quilt. If your gums feel numb 'Cause your teeth haven't come} It's OK if you chew on your quilt. We expect you to lie on your quilt, If you hurt you may cry on your quilt. On a cold rainy night, Don't you fret, you're all right, You'll be snug, warm and dry on your quilt. author-- Nancy Riddell |
