intrepid travelers from Amy’s Blogger’s Quilt Festival, <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> my </span>awesome followers, and welcome guests to
Queenie’s wee corner of the internet. Here is my submission to this season's Blogger's Quilt Festival… (For close up views of any image just click on the photo.)</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Baskerville Old Face","serif"; font-size: 14pt;">I
call this beauty, “Whispered Lace Meets Delft China”</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Znb7vm8TuSg/U2P18Z9gtDI/AAAAAAAAE6I/PSzv0XaKlIw/s1600/whisperinglace.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-Znb7vm8TuSg/U2P18Z9gtDI/AAAAAAAAE6I/PSzv0XaKlIw/s1600/whisperinglace.jpg" height="300" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Baskerville Old Face","serif"; font-size: 14pt;">I
created it from Amy’s <a href="http://amyscreativeside.com/2013/06/27/modern-neutrals-whispered-lace/" target="_blank">“Whispered Lace” pattern out of her “Modern Neutrals”</a> book.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Baskerville Old Face","serif"; font-size: 14pt;">When
Amy first revealed this beautiful quilt pattern I totally fell in love
and knew I had to put it on the to-do list.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-euMO884GEkU/U2P18bbpUBI/AAAAAAAAE6M/a2vnoV99CgQ/s1600/20140209_163557.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-euMO884GEkU/U2P18bbpUBI/AAAAAAAAE6M/a2vnoV99CgQ/s1600/20140209_163557.jpg" height="400" width="300" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Baskerville Old Face","serif"; font-size: 14pt;">Queenie
decided to challenge herself and limit the color pallet to cool neutrals…<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span></span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-JcwHmDTALUI/U2P18d3sqYI/AAAAAAAAE6M/BaOgPw2sVhY/s1600/20140215_122856.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-JcwHmDTALUI/U2P18d3sqYI/AAAAAAAAE6M/BaOgPw2sVhY/s1600/20140215_122856.jpg" height="300" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Baskerville Old Face","serif"; font-size: 14pt;">Of
the beige, blue and grey variety…</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZFncHsRHtFk/U2P18bDYqOI/AAAAAAAAE6M/FYNUq93wYKw/s1600/20140215_165156.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/-ZFncHsRHtFk/U2P18bDYqOI/AAAAAAAAE6M/FYNUq93wYKw/s1600/20140215_165156.jpg" height="300" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Baskerville Old Face","serif"; font-size: 14pt;">That
really reminded me of beautiful Delft china.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-yQxwPiDT8Ns/U2P18SRjWlI/AAAAAAAAE6M/4y3MIBwJHgU/s1600/20140215_122927.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-yQxwPiDT8Ns/U2P18SRjWlI/AAAAAAAAE6M/4y3MIBwJHgU/s1600/20140215_122927.jpg" height="300" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Baskerville Old Face","serif"; font-size: 14pt;">With
Delft china in mind, I decided an edge to edge floral pattern of quilting would be a pleasing
complement.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-I1va6zZUkMU/U2P18V4qhEI/AAAAAAAAE6M/neyyM3vFI6k/s1600/20140216_160721.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-I1va6zZUkMU/U2P18V4qhEI/AAAAAAAAE6M/neyyM3vFI6k/s1600/20140216_160721.jpg" height="300" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Baskerville Old Face","serif"; font-size: 14pt;">This
is the first king sized quilt I’ve quilted on my Innova quilting machine named Sir Owen.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-XXStpuoFwHg/U2P18ZrCb-I/AAAAAAAAE6M/h99pf27Lv38/s1600/20140216_160647.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/-XXStpuoFwHg/U2P18ZrCb-I/AAAAAAAAE6M/h99pf27Lv38/s1600/20140216_160647.jpg" height="300" width="400" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Baskerville Old Face","serif"; font-size: 14pt;">And,
of course, it was a smooth sailing hand guiding Sir Owen through the quilting.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-R1qkZaTAW1Y/U2P18S5UQoI/AAAAAAAAE6M/yHtTVDAN7Zc/s1600/20140223_103436.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-R1qkZaTAW1Y/U2P18S5UQoI/AAAAAAAAE6M/yHtTVDAN7Zc/s1600/20140223_103436.jpg" height="400" width="300" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "Baskerville Old Face","serif"; font-size: 14pt;">Another
first, was printing my quilt label on the computer. Queenie's quite pleased with the result!</span></div>

<span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: large;">Amy graciously allows each person to enter 2 quilts per show
and this is my second, a quilted pillow top called “Wonky Dice” which I’m entering
in the Doll/Mini Quilt category.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Please

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: large;">Oh, about a month or so ago I took a workshop from the
extremely talented <a href="http://www.sharonschamber.com/default.asp" target="_blank">Sharon Schamber</a> </span><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: large;">
and learned her amazing Piec-lique technique which makes complex and curved
piecing very approachable.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>The next day
I adventured (as Queenie has been known to do) with this newly learned
technique and created this fun little wonky dice block.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: large;">I then snuggled it next to another project on Sir Owen the
Innova for some quick quilting of bubbly pebbles.</span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-7YEHQ1F0Krk/UnLP8FhPWXI/AAAAAAAADZ4/MkzXRawyqfY/s1600/20131012_121419.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-7YEHQ1F0Krk/UnLP8FhPWXI/AAAAAAAADZ4/MkzXRawyqfY/s400/20131012_121419.jpg" width="300" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: large;">I added extra batting/trapunto to the round pieced shapes creating
a <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>petite pillow for each. </span></div>
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-4uLKjqafzFs/UnLP8DQsJwI/AAAAAAAADZ4/tC9wUNDL5zE/s1600/20131012_121414.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/-4uLKjqafzFs/UnLP8DQsJwI/AAAAAAAADZ4/tC9wUNDL5zE/s400/20131012_121414.jpg" width="300" /></a></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: large;">I finished Wonky Dice with a flanged binding and a lapped back for
easy insertion of a pillow form.</span></div>

back of monsoon triple digit, humidity is finally broken. This weekend saw
temps in the high 80sF, dry and crystal clear blue skies. Perfect weather for
seeding the Delicious’s Backyard Kingdom. <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You see, Arizona has two seasons for grass and
we are quickly approaching the winter rye season.</span></span><br />

by the <a href="http://phoenixmodernquiltguild.com/2013/09/30/october-workshop-rsvp-only/" target="_blank"><span style="color: red;">Phoenix Modern Quilt Guild</span></a>. </span><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: large;">Boy, oh boy, was it fun!!!<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;">
</span>This is my finished block.</span><br />
<span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: large;"><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">
<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNYSkDQiuD4F1Jl1r8Dj2WhTFiDWxMV5biV-_Y2oQBH43cY8Y15flVSdtSRmNGBWuEfESbK-GEDj0mcmzYYlff5eB1zjlH2swU71xr0QzrlqLhwqlIB8MsDh0QHlkHJ3Sfto30IzEL0NM/s1600/Piec-tique.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em; margin-right: 1em;"><img border="0" height="400" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjNYSkDQiuD4F1Jl1r8Dj2WhTFiDWxMV5biV-_Y2oQBH43cY8Y15flVSdtSRmNGBWuEfESbK-GEDj0mcmzYYlff5eB1zjlH2swU71xr0QzrlqLhwqlIB8MsDh0QHlkHJ3Sfto30IzEL0NM/s400/Piec-tique.jpg" width="361" /></a></div>
</span><span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: large;">Sharon’s Piec-lique technique makes complex and curved piecing
very approachable. So much so the next day I adventured (as Queenie has been known to do) with this newly
learned technique and created this fun little wonky dice block.</span><br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin: 0in 0in 0pt;">
<span style="font-family: Calibri; font-size: large;">I will definitely keep this technique in my bag of tricks
going forward!!!</span></div>

toward the positive. One thing that helps is to purposely look for beauty and
whimsy in the mundane. In Arizona we are in the last throws of the monsoon end
of summer… Heat and humidity steam rolling on and a constant cascade of sweat
making it a challenge to walk in a positive light.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Last evening, while in line at the drive
through at our favorite Mom and Pop Mexican food place, I spied a wonderful
sunset in my side rearview. </span><br />
