Quilting: The Art Of Warmth

To quilt you need to know you’re making art

The art of warmth, a quilting metaphor

A fabric poem, written from the heart

It’s poetry, and yet, it’s so much more

More senses are engaged in what you make

Than any simple poem, read or heard

Reach out and feel the warmth, for goodness sake

The warmth you feel is more than any word

To quilt, the artist works with more than thread

The quilter works with colors, textures too

And warmth, I know it’s already been said

But quilted warmth is everything you do

May every quilt you make be seen as art

And may the warmth of quilting fill your heart.
