Things are looking a bit more Christmas-y around here! Some decorations are out (I've been in a glittery silver mood lately), the tree is up and lit (ornaments yet to come) so I'm actually starting to feel festive. I've got my car stereo tuned to a holiday music station, so it's no wonder I'm humming Christmas songs to myself all day. Which has led to this:
Quilted Gifts (sing to the tune of "Jingle Bells")
Dashing to the store
For one more spool of thread.
I have all shades of blue,
but I need that perfect red.
The quilt is almost done,
The bobbin's running low.
I'll stitch another hour or two
And then it's good to go. Oh...
Quilted gifts, quilted gifts,
I started back in May
Sewing for the holidays,
To be done by Christmas day. Hey!
Quilted gifts, quilted gifts,
Next year won't be hard.
I'll cross off every project and
Instead give a gift card!
(And for those of you who have asked, you are free to sing my silly songs with your friends, mini-groups or guilds as you choose...And yes, your guilds may print them in newsletters as long as you give me credit! I'm amused that you like my goofy Quilty Holiday songs!)
If you ever tire of teh lawyer gig, perhaps yo could have a second career as a writer of novelty songs!
ReplyDeleteI am making my gifts this year, so this and your first song are very fitting!
