I'm sorry that we don't have a pattern for that one--we did design it! It was a kind of build it as you go quilt. The mastermind behind that one was my sister though--she really should go into business!
The way we usually go about designing quilts for our kids is we pick a theme. In the case of this one, it was the mariner's compass. My daughter and son-in-law met while working for Holland America Cruise lines. So the center medallion had to be a mariner's compass! Then we auditioned fabric and designs to go with it.
It's always fun working with her, and the kids love what we come up with.
Thanks for all the compliments! :)
