Scraps II // 12 and last!

Here is my finished Scraps II quilt. This was a half intuitive half planned quilt to make and easy to piece. An easy job after the laborious one with Kernel. It is a mix of solid scraps used for the block centers and yardage fabric to complete the blocks in a chessboard layout.

182 x 139 cm

Rütli

Yesterday we went on a great day trip to the Rütli area, where the Old Swiss Confederacy was formed. We went by train to Brunnen, by ship to Rütli, hiked via Selisberg to Bauen. From there the ship took us back to Brunnen. We enjoyed beautiful weather, great views, and the satisfaction of a long tiring hike.

Ieri abbiamo fatto una bellissima gita alla regione del Rütli. Il treno ci ha portati a Brunnen dove abbiamo preso la nave per arrivare a Rütli. A piedi siamo saliti fino a Selisberg e poi scesi verso Bauen. Li abbiamo ripreso la nave che ci ha riportati a Brunnen. Abbiamo goduto delle vedute fenomenali a avuto la soddisfazione di una bella stancata.

Funny discovery while rummaging in the closet: A jacket branded Jupiter on a vintage hanger named Saturn. Not intended!

Eine witzige Entdeckung im Kleiderschrank: Eine Jacke der Marke Jupiter auf einem Kleiderbügel der Marke Saturn. Ohne Absicht. Sachen gibt's!

Ma tu guarda cosa ho trovato per caso nel armadio: Una giacca di marca Giove sopra un attaccapanni di marca Saturno.  Senza intenzione. Incredibile!

Kernel // 15 and last

Finally some pictures of the finished quilt. The real colors are a little less vibrant though.
I paper foundation pieced it after my own design. Each block is designed individually. I quilted it with diagonal lines of three different colors and widths.
