17... Moda Poem

Days to go...

I recently signed up for a giveaway over at Moda...Home...Mom... She was giving away a nice package of Moda fabric things. To enter you had to come up with a holiday song or poem about Moda. I didn't win (I'm sure she's very nice, and the winners lyrics were cute, but she must not have read mine as I OBVIOUSLY wrote the better entry...lol), but I thought I would share my entry with you.



Twas the night before Christmas

and all through the home,

not needle was stitching

through the rooms I did roam.


I stopped at the mantel

and did gaze with my eyes all alight,

at my quilted snowman hanging

from Moda's "Merry & Bright."


I paused by the tree and felt such a resonance,

I knew all would be happy

with their "Christmas Presence."


I stepped on the stair

to go snuggle in bed,

in "Funky Monkey" pj's

when I heard a sound in my head.


Santa walked behind me

and whispered quite clear

"Cranberry Wishes" to all

and to all a Moda year!


It was fun coming up with the the words for the poem! The woman who won, did a great job with new lyrics to the "I want a hippopotamus for Christmas." Go to Angela's site to read them!

I should have an update on a couple projects I have been working on in the next day or two, I am afraid with this cold/flu thing I have, I just haven't had the energy to work as fast as I wanted too. Stay tuned...

You did an awesome job with your entry and wish I could have given all of you a prize.

Your poem is very cute. In fact after reading it the jingle is stuck in my head for the day.

You are also right about Angela, she is very nice.
