Here is the second 'row' of my mariner's compass quilt. I may put a thin border of light orange fabric between the center compass and the corners. There doesn't seem to be enough contrast. Also, I'm auditioning the fabric on the bottom for a possible border around the compass grouping.
I am thinking of using 'Faceted Jewels' blocks to surround the center square, although I'm not sure exactly how yet. What do you think? Do you think it would be odd looking? Or too fussy?
