mariner's compass
Does anyone know where I can find a Mariner's Compass quilt pattern that is not paper pieced? All of the ones I find online are all paper-pieced. There should be one out there somewhere with pattern pieces that I can trace onto plastic template pieces. Any help?

learn to paper piece. Sooo much easier and much more accurate.

I agree with ardnas. You just can't make points as accurately by piecing as you can with paper piecing. Check out Carol Doak's method.

Judy Mathison's book has detailed instructions on how to draft your own MC in any size you wish. You could draft your own and make your own templates

The above mentioned book features a method using freezer paper where you sew next to the folded paper instead of through it. I loved it and made a beautiful MC quilt using Judy's methods and book. |

Check out Phillips Fiber Art. They have a video on how to assemble their Mariner's Compass.
