    I am so excited, I entered a contest at Quilters Club of America for $110.00 worth of Aurifil thread,you had to write a short poem about why you wanted to win the contest and I just found out that out of all the poems entered , mine was selected and I won the Aurifil Choice award, $110 of thread. What a shock, I have never won anything before. Here is my poem



    How to overcome the guilt

    When all I want to do is quilt

    How to make myself fix food

    When I am only in the mood

    To sit and sew,and piece and press

    That's all I want I must confess

    Does my husband need clean socks

    Wait, I'm working on my blocks

    Put the lid on my machine

    So that I can go and clean ?

    I think not, I'd rather sew.

    But theres one thing that I know

    I just really love the thrill

    Of sewing with my Aurifil

    It would be a grand surprise

    If I could only win this prize.

    Picture me with my obsession

    With Aurifil in my possession.

    YEAH !!!
