Quilters do get involved in their work. They do also have a sense of humor as the poem will indicate...... Enjoy
*****************
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
stipplin'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 wall
hangings 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!
