Addicted to Quilting

She Learned to Quilt on MONDAY.
Her stitches all were fine
She forgot to make us dinner
So we all went out to dine

She quilted miniatures on TUESDAY
she says they are a must
They really were quite lovely
But She forgot to dust

On WEDNESDAY it was a sampler.
She says stippling's fun
What Highlights What Shadows!
But The LAUNDRY was'nt done

Nine Patches were on Thursday
Green,Yellow,Blue and red.
I guess she really was engrossed
She never made the Bed.

It was wall hangings on Friday.
In colors she adores
It never bothered her at all
That crumbs were on the floor

I found a maid on SATURDAY
My week is now complete
My wife can quilt the hours away
The house will still be neat

Well, now its only SUNDAY
I think I,m about to wilt
I cursed,I raved,I ranted
Cause the Maid has learned to QUILT !

You Know you are a Quilter If........
There's more Fabric in the House than Food
"Fat Quarters" are not the heaviest part of your body
Your ironing board is always set up but you never iron
clothes
You think of your job as an interruption of your quilting
time
You pet Fabric
People are always picking threads off you
You can measure a scant 1/4 by eye
"Featherweight" Doesn't mean Boxer
Your "UFO's" are not from outer space
You clean up your sewing room & they think you are
leaving

Love this! Did you write it?

ummmm no! I'm not that cleaver...LOL

LOL these are so cute..and I am so guilty of "petting" fabrics.. :lol:

:thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup: :thumbup:
Oh so true!

Petting fabric, yes. Talking to it, too. Sooo pretty....

I made a wall hanging out of that first one and hung it in my sewing room. I love it. I typed the poem into a "word" program, printed it on printable fabric and put a border around it. I'd love to find an actual poster of it somewhere.
