    Which way is north?

    Hello everyone.My daughter wanted a Mariner's compass quilt. I wasn't sure that I could make that. It looked so difficult in the beginning.But when I stared working on it I've got the hang of it. So this is what I made for her. Thanks for looking and happy quiltingName: IMG_6972.JPG Views: 2642 Size: 127.9 KBName: IMG_6975.JPG Views: 2641 Size: 183.3 KBName: IMG_6909.JPG Views: 2635 Size: 154.5 KBName: IMG_6974.JPG Views: 2638 Size: 180.4 KB

    You didn't just make her a Mariner's Compass, you made several of them! Beautiful quilt, and I love the embroidered initials for the points of the compass. What a treasure she has now!
