By Robert J (Bob) Moore © 2016 Making quilts is difficult, you might think you’re clever too but there’s all the thought and preparation, that you have to do, choose the colours and choose the thread, will that one go with this patterns which you think they’d like, and scenes all filled with bliss Then add them all, and study it, till you think it looks just right you cut and stitch and ponder, well into the night paper pieces, bits of cloth, and sewing things together flowers here, and there a bird, and stitch, light as a feather As well as Quilt’s, there’s Cushions, and runners for the table too wall hangings, cross stitch samplers, to mention just a few to cut and stitch and applique, the pattern she will choose to make exactly what she sees, her talent she will use But more than colour, more than thread, there’s part of you in there with every stitch and every thought, filled with love and care for quilts are made for family, and friends that you hold dear so they can keep, and cherish them, year after year after year

This captures the same snapshot picture and feeling as a haiku does, but in wonderfully-written sixteen lines! It is a refreshing and seemingly simple idea, but full of fun and love. Way to go! :)
