This, That, And The Other Things

Here we are two-thirds the way through January. The month is simply whizzing by.

Queenie’s Christmas town has faded into the mist until next year when it will once again magically appear like Brigadoon.

The Queenie Mother’s Blue Birds in Spring quilt is done, finished, complete!

A modern take on traditional red work,

Brimming with Spring time joy.

Just what many of us need in the deepest of winter time, especially those in the middle of the polar vortex.

Queenie continues her quilty sketches,

During her lunch hour at the mundane,

Working many variations on a theme.

Then experimenting with Sir Owen the Innova,

Working up samples of quilting from ideas in the sketches.

Queenie really likes this frolicking gem…

An avenue to be adventured down some more me thinks.

Until next time,

Have a great day!

Love, happiness, experience... cool!

As many of you know, Queenie is not a practitioner of the new year’s resolution tradition, but I found this to be quite fun and thought you would enjoy it too:

My first three words:

Love, happiness, experience

What’s yours?

Queenie is well blessed with the first two words, just look to the right side bar to “Queenie’s Court” to see.  In 2014 me thinks word number three, "experience" will be most enjoyed on Sir Owen the Innova.

Taking my many wee quilty sketches…

And mundane meeting doodles

And evolving them into possible quilting motifs.

Currently on Sir Owen I’ve been running wild…

On scrap fabric.

Gaining experience and experimenting with...

Different threads and batting.     

It is great fun and a wonderful way to adventure into the new year.

What are your first three words for 2014?

How will they help you adventure into the new year?

Until next time…

Have a  great day!

Happy 2014

From sunny Arizona

Whether you’re rock’n it techno Waterford

Or waltzing it old school

Queenie and the Delicious

Wish you a snuggly, safe, and comfy New Year’s eve celebration!

Remember to keep the light of hope alive within and without as we adventure into a new year.

Thank you to all our friends and followers who visit our little corner of blogland, you’re the best!

Happy 2014!!

Until next time,
Have a great day!

Happy and Merry Christmas!!!

Like Brigadoon…

Christmas Town magically appears…

In Queenie’s Kingdom of…

Light hearted fancy and…

Suspended disbelief

Even the Christmas cactus is in full regalia this year!

And what to my wondering eyes did appear?

Father Christmas Bear!

Spreading his magical charm…

Throughout the Kingdom

With joy and warm Arizona snow



From all of us in the Kingdom,

We wish you the Happiest and Merriest of Christmas!

Until next time,

Have a great day!

Kingdom Doings

You Hellou!  Minnie Delicious here!

Our beloved Queenie is battling allergy illness and simply not of a mind to post to the blog-o-sphere.  Sooooo, I’m picking up the slack and reporting to you from the backyard kingdom

Rest assured her Queenieness is on the mend after investing in Kleenex stock - liberally watered with Canada Dry ginger ale.

In other news…

The Christmas cactus is putting forth beautiful pale pink blossoms just in time for Christmas.

This will be the 2^nd year in a row it’s made such a grand appearance.

In the studios our paw paw, Honey Man is trying his hand at quilting with Sir Owen the Innova.

And, Queenie is squirreled away creating loveliness for the next quilt to dance with Sir Owen.

As one of the two pampered pooches in Queenie’s Kingdom, life is pretty much perfect but given the chance…

This would be on our dog dog wish list! BOL!!!

Until next time…

Merry Christmas!!

Big furry love and lots of doggy kisses!!!
