Scavenger hunt quilt

I have been following online as Heide Parkes gives and demonstrates the steps for making a very personal scavenger hunt quilt. Step one was tracing the side of my body , which is on the left of the piece. Step 2 is the long rectangle which is my birth month and date so 6x 21 inches. The third step is in the top right which is a tracing around items I touch everyday. So there is my hairbrush, keys, tea pot and headphones. The fourth step is the chronological square in bottom right. Starting from some silk my grandmother bought in Thailand in the 1970’s to a piece of a vintage embroidered doily tat was left over from a recent project. These are all stitched down now so I am ready to get onto the next step.
