Just saw your compass quilt. It's so beautiful. I have a cute compass story if you have time to read it. My great grandmother during the depression used to take her quilt blocks to church to work on. Most of the ladies did. She had no money for a machine.She got her first one in 45.Another ladie was working on a compass quilt at church and my grandmother was impressed with the pattern so she asked for a copy.She was told flat out no. So my GGmother went home drew out the pattern and pieced the block for the next week at church. I could just see her proudly showing her block. I still have the block.It's my treasure.
