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!

C-R-E-A-T-I-V-E!!!
Cute! Love that last photo!!!
Would love to see a video of the performance - the last photo says it all - love what you have done - such fun!! LOL
FANTASTIC!
I was expecting a video as well, but I love the photos you added with the song.
Never was a ABBA fan, but this song parody is cute! What's that miniature quilt with the house shapes? Have we seen it?
