Ilene Bauer Poet Limerick

Sew What

My new quilting teacher’s a guy
Which proves why you cannot get by
With presuming you know
Just which person will show
If the course list does not specify.

He’s delightful and knows all his stuff
And his skills appear quite up to snuff.
In his class I can grow
Since this teacher’s a pro
And that knowledge is more than enough.

Gershon Wolf January 10, 2020 at 12:33 PM Did this guy introduce himself (?)with a pronoun? Here in America nothing is what it appears to be anymore. Sadly... Hopefully 'he' is a guy. But who really knows? Could even be a robot! … Loved your write, and hope you're right!! :) gw

Rico Leffanta January 9, 2020 at 1:25 PM Clever girl! But did you peek to ensure "he" is not transgender? "A stitch in time saves nine!" Aloha! Rico

Jan Allison January 8, 2020 at 5:58 PM Just shows a man can cut it in what would once have been thought of as a woman's job. I hope you show him your tribute poem I am sure he would be delighted and he may get more ladies in his class!!!:-) hugs jan xx

Chris Green January 8, 2020 at 5:20 PM Cute Ilene. So will it be hand stitched or machine stitched? : ) Ilene Bauer January 10, 2020 at 12:09 PM I’m strictly a hand-quilter, Chris! I’ve never made a bed-sized quilt, but make small wall hangings, doll blankets and pillows. I’m not very good , but I enjoy it...
