The quilt “Our street with Photos” is actually a farewell gift for our British neighbours in a small German village who decided to come back forever to Great Britain. The people next door gave me their photos or I have to take some, especially of two old ladies (they have even made their face up!) as well as of kids and animals! I have made several EQ5 projects of “our houses and sites” and then I had to sew the simplest one from my stash in three weeks almost alone with a little organizational help… It was a great good bye party with many tears of joy! Paper piecing, machine quilting in stitch, appliqué, embellishment; houses and trees are either from EQ library or from me – adapted according to sizes of as sharply as possible defined pictures.
