I believe the quilt in your picture was made by Helen Urie Rowell, the grandmother of Natalie Kinsey-Warnock, a children's book author from the Northeast Kingdom of Vermont. Her website: http://www.kinsey-warnock.com/ and a school presentation she did with the quilt :http://orchard.sbschools.net/library...nock/index.htm It has over 1000 points.

I checked out this page, too
http://www.kinsey-warnock.com/
and realized that this quilt maker did not start quilting till she was in her 60's. Maybe there is hope for me after all, I feel like such a late bloomer sometimes.

I have a Mariner's Compass book that I checked out from the library that gives step by step instructions. The patterns in the book are for up to a 32inch center medallion and are paper pieced. It is called Mariner's Compass Quilts, Setting a New Course written by Judy Mathieson
