A poem about quilter
Posted on: 9/1/2004
My Wife, the Quilter
She learned to quilt on Monday. Her Stitches were very fine.
She forgot to thaw out dinner, So we went out to dine.
She quilted miniatures 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 the stripling's fun.
What highlights! Oh what shadows! But the laundry wasn't done.
Her charm quilt was on Thursday, Green patches, blue and red.
I guess she really was engrossed; She never made the bed.
It was wallhangings on Friday, In colors she adores,
But she never seemed to notice the crumbs on all the floors.
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, it's already Sunday. I think I'm about to wilt.
I cursed, I raved, I ranted-The MAID has learned to Quilt!
| About me |
| In year 2001, I discovered that |
| there was a quilting TV Show |
| called "Simply Quilt" in HGTV |
| channel that inspired me to start |
| quilting. |
| It was not so easy in the process |
| of self learning but later I |
| discovered a magazine called |
| "Quiltmaker" which has a lot of |
| patterns that I can use from it. |
| At the year end of 2003, I |
| started to self-learning Chinese |
| typing then I discovered from |
| the internet that there was a |
| Taiwan quilting group called |
| "Happy Quilting Group" which |
| was organized by a lady |
| named May. |
| After joining the group then I |
| have made some small projects |
| i.e. cup, doll and tool bag etc. |
