The Big 6

This weekend Queenie and HoneyMan adventured to Tucson, Arizona to celebrate the big 6.
That’s right our 6th anniversary of wedded bliss!
We stayed at the La Posada Del Valle Bed & Breakfast Inn. 
A lovely oasis just around the corner from the University of Arizona...
Chalk full of Santa Fe style charm,
And southwest treasures.
It was built in the 1920’s with true adobe construction, none the less.  
The cherry on the top of this most excellent anniversary celebration was attending the Chris Thile concert.
A genius mandolin virtuoso who amazes and thoroughly entertains.
This entire magical get-away was orchestrated by none other than the best husband in the whole wide world!
I’m one lucky Queenie for sure!

Until next time,
Have a great day!

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 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!
