Won't You Be My Neighbor?

 Row 10 - Houses

of the Row Along

with Lori Holt of  Bee In My Bonnet

are now

happily all lined up on the street.

When Lori designed these houses she asked 

"Won't You Be My Neighbor?"

I pulled out my fabric scraps

and quickly responded

"Yes!"

 5 Cute little houses

with a light on in the window,

waiting for friends to come and play.

 One door has a wreath, wrapped with flowers fresh from the garden.

 Another house

has a cabbage rose roof,

 with a smiling face in the front window.

At the end of the street is a purple house

where birds sing in a melodious duet.

 But my favorite houses of all are 

designed where Lori and I can be next door neighbors.

We often have talked about how we wish we lived near each other.

In my pretend world, we now do!

 I will think fondly of Lori every time I see this quilt,

 and remember our

Row Along together.

I

The best of friends are 

back door neighbors.

I'll be waiting for your little 3-knock signal,

ready to lend a cup of sugar

and a few eggs.
