Quilting Queen!

Yesterday AbbyKat made a comment on my blog and included a "poem" that her quilt guild had written and sung at a meeting/retreat. I loved it and I asked if I could include it here. She said her quilting group in New Zealand performed it and it has gotten around New Zealand a bit but I'd like you to all put on ABBA right now and sing along with me!

QUILTING QUEEN

You can sew
You can stitch
Having the time of your life!
Ooh
See that seam
Watch that pin
Be-in' the Quilting Queen!


Monday night and the lights are low
Looking out for the place to sew
Where you make great friendships
Find out all the news
You've come in to fight the blues



Anybody could stay at home
With quilting groups it's much more fun
With a bit of friendship
Everything is fine
You need to take your time
And when you finish a quilt...



You are the Quilting Queen
Wise and neat
No longer seventeen
Quilting Queen
Feel the beat
From the sewing machine
Oh yeah

You can patch
You can quilt
Having the time of your life!
Ooh
See that seam
Watch that pin
Be-in' the Quilting Queen!





You're a star you turn it round
Leave them yearning and then you're done
Looking out for a project
Any one will do
You've never used that silk
And when you finish a quilt...

You are the Quilting Queen
Wise and neat
No longer seventeen
Quilting Queen
Feel the beat
From the sewing machine

You can patch
You can quilt
Having the time of your life!
See that seam
Watch that pin
Be-in' the Quilting Queen!
