If you are rated 1100, then do not worry about openings.
You do not win or lose because of the opening, but because of tactical errors.
Always check your intended move is no blunder before you play it.
If you want to improve, then play 15|10 rapid and whenever you lose a game, stop playing and analyse it thoroughly so as to learn from your mistakes.
The repertoire you list is a valid choice. Keep playing it so as to accumulate experience with it.

How is your understanding of the plans for your openings? As in how many opening moves/plans and options for both sides can you play in your head before getting lost? Not in game, just as an exercise. If you know why you are doing something and what the plans should be then the blunders on both sides should stand out. You should be able to get to a point on the mental exercise and start thinking why moves fail. Do it enough times you will extend your personal main line and memory to get better positions for later in the game. Hopefully be able to transition into some won endgames you can convert.
