My Small World

We are in our new home now. We have been for five months. I love living there. It didn't take much time to get used to the new place and space. I've only been confused once: when we had been  on holiday for a week in Friesland (sailing/family reunion) and drove back home, I was thinking of the wrong place that we were driving to. When I came in the house after that drive I walked into each room and sort of greeted it and felt very happy that this is our place now. 

The first quilting project I started here was the My Small World quiltalong designed by Jen Kingwell. Appropriate as I was establishing my small world in a new house. Here are photos from when I was making all the different sections of the quilt.

Finally I have part one of part one done #mysmallworldqal

Yippee, part 1 is done! (5 more to do...) It's fun to use all kinds of scraps and cute fabrics from my stash for all the little elements of this quilt. #mysmallworldqal

At the top you see the paper foundation I drew for the little roofs from diagram 11. At the bottom the result and the part it will be sewn onto. #mysmallworldqal

All from the scrap basket, some scraps are so old #mysmallworldqal

Wow, this was really hard to make... diagram 17 of the #mysmallworldqal Bottom of part 3

Part 4 #mysmallworldqal

 

It was quite a lot of work to get this far. But next is the scary part of sewing them together. I'll leave it for next week. Weekend!!! #mysmallworldqal

The design was very intricate and on some points quite challenging. Fun challenges that I took on and some that I thought were too much and found an alternative for. The quilt top is finished now and awaiting it's turn in the quilt finishing line.
