Sunburnt Quilts

Quilts, Patchwork & Embroidery

A RED Letter Day.

Or should that be a RED quilt day. Today I am having some fun doing the Tuesday Guest post at Sew We Quilt @ Stash Manicure.  And I get to show you this finally finished quilt top. Madame Samm is running a wonderful Wantobe Quilter’s Campaign. If you want to be in the draw for […]




Buttons and posts.

Just letting you know that I get to do a guest post on Tuesday  (Canadian time) at Sew We Quilt @ Stash Manicure as part of the Wantobe Quilters Campaign. Madame Samm has asked me to add a followers button so she can use that to check for her give away. I have never bothered […]




Colour Play.

Nothing happening. I am being indulgent. Just me having a colour fix!




Tube Stripping.

I had watched this interesting tutorial from Missouri Quilt Co. about strip tubing and could not resist the temptation to try it. I had a Flag Day Farm jelly roll at hand and had no other plans for it, so decided to give it a try. I treated this as my test run. I also […]

This week I have have enjoyed making several items using tutorials from blogs. The first one is the S’Mitten Quilt from Erin Russek on her blog One Piece at a […]




Bears In Boxes.

Another picnic day has arrived. Time to visit Melody at The House On The Side Of The Hill to join in the picnic. I was searching for a particular fabric the other day when I found this piece covered in gorgeous bears. I have used it on several occasions but still have a good metre […]




A Difference In A Day.

I am so pleased I had a bright sunny photo yesterday, because today is the exact opposite. Cold, cloudy and drizzly with rain. The good thing for us is that we are gradually filling those reservoirs again, and boy, do we need it after so many years of drought. It has been a very good […]




August Wattle.

No quilting related info in this post at all! Although it is  Winter and very wet and cold, I still love this time of year because the wattles are all coming into bloom. When you see something like this it just has to lift your spirits!!




What’s Happening?

Not a lot, it seems! I feel like I am busy doing lots of things but don’t have a lot to show for it. Very strange! A lot of time has been spent on fiddly things like preparing quilt tops for quilting and loads of cutting out. I have been adding the final borders to […]




Colourful Leafy Friday.

Robyn has sent us all off to hunt for leaves for this Colourful Friday.  Check Daisy Quilts to see what everyone has found. During Easter I found two rabbits hiding in amongst the pumpkin leaves. Recent Autumn leaves. Some quilty leaves from a quilt made a long time ago. Can’t go without finding a koala […]
