New Critters every day!

Hello once again... I am so lapse at this blogging thing...
I meant to do this every day, not every 6 months. Jeesh. I have been super busy creating Quilty Critters, and just this week, batches of Western styled animals!

It seems like I never quite have to the time to get anything done, but what they hey. I hope to someday finish my education, get a real job, and support myself so I don't have to rely upon a man and then perhaps I'll find the elusive happiness that so far, in my almost 53 years, I haven't found. (Other than through the eyes of my beloved children).
Anyway, too deep to get into that - I hope to post some new Quilty Pix.
Enjoy - and have a happy day!

I haven't been here for a while. So I've been busy, that's cool.
Creating, sorting, counting, working, worrying, and among other things, just being human.

i guess no one missed me. Big surprise there.

link trouble

got to Artfire.com and look for Queenartist or Quilty Critters....

New site for Critters! ARTFIRE.com

Well, I haven't written in a while so here it is... today's blog that no one will read. I'm not sure why people blog but here I am 'doing 'it' I blog because I am trying desperately to promote my Quilty Critter business, since I don't have a job this is my only means of income.
Not doing so hot, not financially, not emotionally, not any way.
I ma not sure what will become of me and my life but I sure am tired of it. i am tired of wanting a better life. I'm tired of being promised things that never materialize, and I don't mean material objects either.
I think I should be alone and become a hermit and just be an artist and just create all alone because it is the only world where i am able to escape for a little while and pretend everything is going well. They shut our phone off now, and I am so sick of shut off notices it isn't funny. Well at least I still have a roof over my head (for now...)

I wish things were better, I wish my children's lives were better, and for the life of me I cannot understand why some people have it SO good, while the rest of us schumcks just plod through this sad life.
Anyway, enough of that shit, here's a link I paid $12 for. Like I could afford that.

been so busy...





... I forgot to add a quilty or two yesterday!
I have been trying to get more International series done, but my son just came back from living in Portland, Oregon for nearly 2 years. I welcome him back with open arms, as I have been lonely and oh, so sad. It's quiet in the house when the children are grown and gone, and the husband I chose is a pilot who is quite frankly never at home, and when he is, well, let's just say the honeymoon is over. So my need to create is great. It fill my silent, lonely hours with an imaginary world of happiness. I have never had idle hands and even though I am sure I have a nasty case of carpal tunnel as well as bursitis in my right arm, I still cannot help the need to be doing something ALL the time. I should read more, and yet, as interested as I am in reading I feel that time should be spent creating so that I will have my 15 minutes of fame. Maybe some day? I'm sure as hell not getting any younger.
But let's get back to the quilty of the day - I think I choose my ballerina series since recital time is here. They recall the days of running my daughter to dance class, and going to her wonderful performances. She's the most amazing dancer - I could be mesmerized for hours watching her gentle and precise movements. She is gifted. All my children are, and they amaze me. I am very proud. Anyway - here you have it, critters of the day - Tiny Dancers! Enjoy!

Summer's Here! Dancing in the streets!






Good morning to whomever happens to stroll onto this blog.
I have been busy as a bee creating new critters for my etsy site...and here comes the summer! I've created a Hula Hula girl mousie, a matching surfer dude complete with tiny surf board, and several East Hampton beach inspired 'Beach Babies' (tiny kitty cats decked out in bikini's - and they even have a naval piercing!)

Suntan babe looks like her belly is burned... ooooh poor baby!

I also have been creating more International series, yesterday I completed 4 Japanese Geisha's, A Dutch/Holland couple Cat and Mouse, started an Italy Pizza Maker Monkey, two pale pink glamour puss's, a professor mousie, and I forget what else. You know what they say about idle hands! Can't say that's me!

Have a great day, thanks for looking....and of course, they can be found on etsy.com under queenartist!

Everyday a new critter as I promised






Today's critter - Japanese Geisha Kitty.
I've created an International Series of Quilty Critters, and so far I have made Germany, (Beer drinking mice) Scotland (A Scotch Terrier with golf clubs), Mexico (of course, a guitar playing/tequila drinking Chihuahua), Italy (Pizza monkey), Hawaii, USA (Surfer dude and hula girl) Ireland (several styles) Holland - Dutch Mr. and Mrs. Cat and Mousie! and I have plans for many other countries. You can find my critters readily available on etsy.com - that is queenartist/etsy.com and of course, since I started this blog, just convo me at any time if you would like a Quilty Critter of your very own Prices start at about $5 and go up to about $25 for a 'super sized' quilty, they are 7"-8" and about 5 times the size of my tiny ones. I can make ANYTHING I can draw or anyone else can suggest, I've even done a series of Louisina state animals and fish, and snakes and bugs!
Stayed tuned each day - this is too much fun! Have a wonderful day!
