The kids are parceled out to others, I'm off work and I get alone time with hubby. I cannot wait for it to be official tom. am!
I plan to sew, browse more blogs and stories about those favorite quilts and go to a live quilt show...
"Heaven... I'm in heaven,
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak.
And I seem to find the happiness I seek,
When I'm browsing quilting blogs from week to week.
Heaven... I'm in heaven,
And the cares that hung around me through the week,
Seem to vanish like a gambler's lucky streak,
When I'm viewing quilts piece by piece.
Oh, I love to climb a mountain,
And to reach the highest peak.
But it doesn't thrill me half as much
As when foundation piecing points always meet.
Oh, I love to go out fishing
In a river or a creek.
But I don't enjoy it half as much
As when finishing a frogging leap.
Quilt with me!
I want to hear your presser foot click.
The charms of all our fabrics
Will carry us through every stitch .
Heaven... I'm in heaven,
And my heart beats so that I can hardly speak.
And I seem to find the happiness I seek,
When quilting pushes me through the hours of the week."
Hope you get a chance to enjoy your week this week, too!

Hi Becky - what a great poem! And since I fly fish - even better! I also see that you are a contract negotiator - I think we have a lot in common as I work for an organization that negotiates teachers contracts! You left a comment on my blog for the bloggers quilt festival - this seemed to be the only way I could contact you! Thanks so much!
ReplyDeleteCheers!
Hi Candace, if you check back here that is, the "poem" is an adaptation of the song Dancing Cheek to Cheek. I think it's out of a Fred Astaire/Ginger Rogers flick. :)
