The pattern for this quilt is called Sunburnt Country. It is nine crazy quilt blocks 17 and 1/2 inchs made with nine fabrics (fat quarters). The fat quarters are cut all at once in one pile, so that each block then has the different shapes of each fabric. I got this idea from a shop in Cairns that I visited on our last day before we left for home on our last trip with students from Mass. College of Liberal Arts, a few years ago. All of the fabric in this quilt was purchased on various trips to AU, and I waited to find a pattern that would show details in the variety of fabrics. The fabrics include flowers, trees, birds, kangaroos, koalas, and snakes. The backing is fabric of aboriginal design (no picture available)
My quilt label is called: Sunburnt Country, Memories of Australia
