 You will need Adobe's free Acrobat
software to view the newsletters.

When you print the newsletters, make sure your printer is printing the pages at 100% size. Adobe's Acrobat 7 has been known to print at 94% of the full size, thus causing the quilt pattern pieces to be smaller than the exact measurments. To check the print settings,
• Open a newsletter, then
• Click on the word "File" at the top left of the screen.
• Select "Print" which will open a small window.
• Click on "Properties" and
• Set the size to be "100%" or "None" which will default to 100%.

She learned to quilt on Monday.
Her stitches all were fine.
She forgot to thaw out dinner,
So we went out to dine.
She quilted miniatures on Tuesday;
She says they are a must.
They really were quite lovely,
But she forgot to dust.
|
On Wednesday it was a sampler.
She says stipling's fun.
What highlights! What Shadows!
But the laundry wasn't done.
Her patches were on Thursday;
Green, yellow, blue and red.
I guess she was really engrossed.
She never made the bed.
It was wall hangings on Friday,
In colors she adores.
It never bothered her at all,
Those crumbs there on the floor.
I found a maid on Saturday!
My week is now complete.
My wife can quilt the hours away,
And the house will still be neat.
Now here I am on Sunday.
I think I'm about to wilt.
I cursed, I raved, I ranted, 'cause
The MAID has learned to QUILT!
