SooZeQues Arroyo Junkers and Other Resurrections: January 2013
http://soozeque.blogspot.com/2013_01_01_archive.html
A dry channel through which water flows intermittently and irregularly. Kind of like this blog. My art is an infectious need for me, sometimes a burden but most often a blessing. I will always veer off the path to search out the beautiful wrecked Arroyo JunKers throughout Arizona, New Mexico and anywhere else the road may lead. When I'm not searching for those JunKers. Wednesday, January 23, 2013. Links to this post. Tuesday, January 8, 2013. Those loving gestures looked like this today. This was a great...

Quilts and Other Good Things: Quilting Friends Retreat - 2015
http://loisarnold.blogspot.com/2015/07/quilting-friends-retreat-2015.html
Create and Share Beauty! Thursday, July 23, 2015. Quilting Friends Retreat - 2015. My friend, Joyce, e-mailed me to tell me that my middle name is trouble. She went on to say that last year at our 2014 retreat to her "cabin in the woods", I introduced her and friend Diane to hexie punches and showed them how to make hexies. We are ALL now making English paper pieced hexie quilts. Yep, I did that. After completing the units she was working on for her bow tie quilt, Joyce started joining the blocks that wi...

Quilts and Other Good Things: Celtic Solstice Top - Finally!
http://loisarnold.blogspot.com/2015/04/celtic-solstice-top-finally.html
Create and Share Beauty! Thursday, April 9, 2015. Celtic Solstice Top - Finally! Every once in a while someone will ask me how long it takes to make a quilt. The answer is usually, "as long as it takes." Some projects we have tunnel vision and work on exclusively from start to finish, but others take longer as they are put aside in favor of things with a higher priority at the time. This was a Bonnie Hunter Mystery. She has taken the instructions down, but her blog is worth reading here. This is a scrap ...

Quilts and Other Good Things: Celtic Solstice and Hexie Progress - slow but sure!
http://loisarnold.blogspot.com/2015/03/celtic-solstice-and-hexie-progress-slow.html
Create and Share Beauty! Wednesday, March 11, 2015. Celtic Solstice and Hexie Progress - slow but sure! Are you a slow stitcher or a fast one? Do you get things done really quickly or savor the process? Do you work on one project until it's done? Or are you like me with several things going at once? Here is where Celtic Solstice is today. The left portion is all stitched together. The right portion is webbed and ready for the horizontal rows to be stitched together. I showed you the first two borders here.

Quilts and Other Good Things: Thousand Pyramids - The 30 Year Wonder Qluilt
http://loisarnold.blogspot.com/2015/06/thousand-pyramids-30-year-wonder-qluilt.html
Create and Share Beauty! Thursday, June 18, 2015. Thousand Pyramids - The 30 Year Wonder Qluilt. According to my research, the Great Pyramid took about 20 years to build. This quilt top took about 30 years from concept to last row joined. Hmmm, maybe not so bad considering there are actually 1,175 pyramids in this charm quilt. A little Amish Influence. Christmas fabrics including a fussy cut Christmas bear were exchanged. There is even an "A" for Arnold in the top. There may be a point or two that need t...

Create and Share Beauty! Monday, March 30, 2015. Other People's Fabric - Sheila's Stash. Scrappy quilts are just the best! Last week, I received this box. A BIG basket full of. Make that jam packed full of. And other stuff, too! Lots of fabric and stuff! A tear might have fallen! Sheila's greens, red and purples! Patriotic prints and patterns. Neutrals, golds and yummy blues! It was Sheila's stash and all she asked was. That I quilt and bind this small quilt she made. Skydiving and Zip lining! Here is wh...

Quilts and Other Good Things: Celtic Solstice Update and Christmas Projects
http://loisarnold.blogspot.com/2013/12/celtic-solstice-update-and-christmas.html
Create and Share Beauty! Monday, December 30, 2013. Celtic Solstice Update and Christmas Projects. Hope you all had a marvelous Christmas! We had a house full with lots of love, laughter, wrapping paper all over the place and food, too! Getting ready for Christmas certainly curtailed my stitching on Celtic Solstice, though I have made some of each of the clues. I also had to prep 110 angels for my 2 and 3 year old classes. Here is the "grown-up" version I did for my own tree. Blue for the foyer. I actual...
