Sunburnt Quilts

Quilts, Patchwork & Embroidery

Lots Of Little Things.

It has been very busy here over the last couple of weeks but I have had a chance to do some sewing for some little ones. First off there are these two little doll quilt wraps. They are 24 by 24 inches and have a 13 by 13 inch pocket in the middle. That is […]




Views And Windows.

Big smiles here. Our computer is back after convalescing for 10 days. Happily, it is now working better than ever. I had just finished my Kitchen Windows quilt flimsy and was ready to post about it when the computer decided to stop. So here it is. Love these fabrics. The pattern is from Elizabeth Hartman’s […]




A Little Mystery.

Each year I manage to attend a workshop for a mystery quilt. This one was held on a day that was 41c but thankfully the workshop was held in air conditioned comfort. This is the end result. It is a small lap quilt – about 40 X 40 inches. I tend to make them small […]




Hot And Easily Distracted.

I have cut out the kitchen window quilt I mentioned in the last post. But with the forecast for our weather, ( 44c or 111F), I decided to cut out several other quilts so I had plenty to do inside with the aircon flowing. That’s where the distraction came in. I was fascinated by the […]




A Star Finish.

The mystery quilt from last year is finally done.  Good to have another UFO off the list. I have found it a little difficult to get the true colours of this quilt in my photos. Neither outside nor inside photos gave the richness of the colours. Never mind – the quilt still looks fine. Here […]




Red Ribbon Santa.

Yes, I have continued to play with ribbons. Lots of red ones this time. I am sure you can guess that these turned into a Santa. It just adds to the Christmas spirit. And this is one of the cards I made in a class recently. Loved the colours in this one.   I hope […]




Playing With Ribbons.

A few weeks back I was playing with this lovely bundle of ribbons. After a little cutting and stitching, they turned into this little wall hanging. Just in time for Christmas.  




Christmas Panel.

This wall hanging is another little finish. I had done all the quilting on it several months ago, but when I went to bind it I couldn’t find the fabric I had set aside.  I put the quilt away knowing that the fabric would turn up somewhere. Obviously it did. It turned out it was […]




Catching Up On UFOs.

I made a bit of an effort to collect together a handful of items that needed only a small amount of work to finish them off. I have a habit of finishing the stitchery part of a project but not following up to complete it. So here are two mini hangings completed.       […]




It Could Be Red October!

  I am linking this post to the Blogger’s Quilt Festival  at Amy’s creative Side.  This quilt is going in the Two Colour Quilt section. There will be hundreds of amazing quilts to view and inspire.  Thanks Amy for this wonderful opportunity.   This particular quilt has been some time in the making. I started […]
