I have always been fascinated by the contrast of the brilliant blue sky and the red earth in the Flinders Ranges and a photograph of Siller’s Lookout was my inspiration. I used commercial fabric for all features of the landscape and the technique was raw appliqué.

I also added features in the rocky lookout with hand embroidery (straight and cross stitch) and on the left I used French knots as highlights. The sky and other areas were hand quilted. The quilt was finished with a facing.
