Burnett Slippers

View the Colorwork Collection for the eBook, which includes this pattern and five other colorwork designs.

Notes

The patchwork quilts of our founder Whitney's great-grandmother Burnett inspired
 the colorwork motif for these slippers. Fat diamonds and pieced fabric, some new, some scraps from old garments, handstitched together to make something new and wonderful. There’s something so comforting about a quilt, and knit slippers on cool mornings are such cozy accessories, making the two a fine match.
