Default Mariners compass LAQ is done!

I just finished up this afternoon. This quilt was made by another QB member. She did a beautiful job on this. I did my best to make it even prettier (no easy task as this top was GORGEOUS!!) I posted a sneak peek here

There is more ruler work than FMQ in this with all the ditch work and curved cross hatching. I have approximately 48 hours of work in this. I think the owner should put it in a show or two. I think it will do well.

Techy stuff, 2 layers of batting. Hobbs 80/20 on bottom and Hobbs Polyfil on top. All the ditch work was done with Fil Tec Essence, a monofiliment polyester thread. Glide in colors Federal Blue and Military Gold on top and magna glide bobbins throughout, in navy and gold. All hand guided, no computer except a stitch regulator. Quilted on my Innova LA.

The whole quilt, some block close ups and a couple of gratuitous back shots.
