More Sketching About

Currently in Queenie’s studio is more sketching about with thread on a quilt top I made from a pattern in Julie Herman’s book: Skip the Borders.

My further exploring with secondary design in and around strong geometric elements.  Here's some softening  sea shore waves...

Combined with organic Celtic swirling circles.

A fun juxtaposition of free motion and precise piecing.

I’m guessing I have about 2 or 3 more weekends worth of work on this project.  When all is complete I will post more snaps of this fun and frolic-y quilt.

I am connecting this post with Freemotion Quilting Friday. Stop on over to see more beautiful quilting a.k.a. sketching with thread.

Until next time…

Have a great day!

Thoroughly Thursday - Back to Basics

Sometimes you just have to get back to basics.

Queenie has been thoroughly absorbed in acclimating Herself to my new job in the mundane.  It’s amazing how a new job influences one’s free time.  Or would that be infringes on one’s free time.

From added time thinking about a new route for commuting. With alternative routes planned for when traffic is bestial. To careful planning of a daily wardrobe that is appropriate to the new surroundings.  Alas, tiaras are not in the dress code.

Throw in juggling the everyday duties of my monarchy… Care of Honey Man, the Delicious and Castile Hermosa –

Woof! Exhaustification!

(Exhaustification: Queenie-Speak for worn out through and through)

On this Friday eve, as I muse about the weekend,

Queenie Believes this is at the top of my to-do list…

Until next time…

Have a great day!
