Was able to find time to search again.
Fortunatelly it is already here. I mean qtquicks-controls port
https://github.com/nemomobile/qtquickcontrols-nemo

Rpm for Sailfish in version 5.2 could be installed from here.
https://openrepos.net/content/locusf/glacier-homescreen

This is used as part of another grate project.
I am already in touch with developers.
So we can go further from this point.

Alex.
