Sunburnt Quilts

Quilts, Patchwork & Embroidery

Pushing Along.

Some projects take a long time because they are big. But there are others that are small and still take ages. That seems to be the case for me with this little caravan. The outside has been made. I have to add a wheel arch and tyre when it is ready to go together. The […]




Easter Stitching.

Happy Easter! Regardless of what is happening in the world, the days still roll by and we reach special dates. I hope many children around the world get to have some fun celebrating Easter. I enjoyed using my Bertie’s Springtime as a backdrop for pictures today. This was a Bonnie Sullivan pattern. I realised I […]




Keep On Finishing.

Trying to keep working on UFOs can be challenging when new projects want a turn, too. So now I am going one for one. I completed a Cherie Payne project I had lingering on a shelf for quite a while – maybe from the Christmas before last. Just a small mini wall quilt. Each block […]




Little Things.

The last day of March. Hard to believe it has come around so quickly. Like many of you I have been digging into my list of projects to be done as well as working on UFOs My finishes for this week are all little things. I have started working on The Twelve Days of Christmas […]




Seeing Spots.

When I had completed my clam shell wall hanging, I had quite a few left over circles. I decided to applique them to a variety of black and white background fabrics and turn them into a mini quilt. A little bit of quilting was done and then a spotted binding was added. It measures about […]




A March Mixture.

There are a lot of bits and pieces that still need finishing, so I will try to keep on top of those UFOs in March. Knowing that Easter is around the corner, I managed to find a frame for this little rabbit. I think it is a Bonnie Sullivan design (All Through The Night) I […]




Circling Around.

My UFO theme continues. I had quite a few embroideries finished but they sat in the bottom of a tub for far too long. I didn’t want to frame them as I knew that way they would take a lot of space for hanging. Several of them had been presented in simple hoops on their […]




Early Stockings?

Maybe early, maybe late – depending on which Christmas you are aiming for. These stockings had no deadline, so I am saying early. This is a set of four stockings made from a panel, from a long time ago. I can’t remember the manufacturer. The design was lovely and only needed some outline stitching. My […]




Clam Shells And Wool Flowers.

My wool flowers and clam shell piece has made it to the finish line. It has ended up as quite a big larger that I thought – 48 X 21 inches. It is a Wendy Williams pattern designed as a table runner but I will use mine as a wall hanging. It is from her […]




A Lovely Long Weekend.

Australia Day. It is a lovely time to have a long weekend and celebrate our nation. January always ends up being a very busy time in the garden. I love seeing these happy sunflowers. We have been keeping up with berry picking. And jam making. Fresh corn is being picked also. Apricots have been harvested. […]
