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 !!!
