Sunburnt Quilts

Quilts, Patchwork & Embroidery

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 […]




A Red And Grey Finish.

Our house is very empty and quiet as the holiday has ended and family have returned home. There is lots to do but some sewing has been squeezed in as well. This quilt was away at the LAQ and I was able to pick it up a couple of weeks ago.  I have spent a […]




Which Doctor?

In amongst the busyness of having family here, I have completed one quilt. There was a deadline so I had to push  to make it but the last stitches went into the binding the night before it was due.  This one was another birthday gift for a Dr Who fan.   The Dr Who fabrics […]




Seeing Stars.

I am finally seeing some quilting finishes. This quilt is full of stars and is based on a pattern called Happy Birthday in the Memorable Scrap Quilts book. The name is appropriate because this is a gift for a birthday.     This quilt was made using lots of bits and pieces from my stash. […]




Little Leftovers.

I had a few little bits of fabric left from the Holiday Frost quilt.  Not enough for even a small quilt but too lovely to just toss in with the scraps. After a bit of playing I made a small wall hanging.  It is now waiting to be sandwiched and quilted.     The centre […]
