Welcome to a fellow Mariner's Compass (also called Compass Rose) addict.

Moon glow by Jonny Beyer is a collection of 12 variations on the Mariners's Compass set with a variation of a log cabin block. The mariner's compass blocks are paper pieced. I have pieced this quilt but it hasn't yet reached the front of the line for quilting and binding.

Just found this interesting variation: https://betukbandi.wordpress.com/tag...ck-off-centre/

Carol Doak has a book of 24 Mariner's variations.

Here is a stained glass version: https://equiltpatterns.com/Stained-G...ss-Quilt-Block

Judy Niemeyer's Vintage Compass and Mariners Compass are beautiful patterns.

Cheryl Phillips 3D Mariner's Compass can't be paper pieced, but is another interesting variation.

Judy Mathieson's book is available from Amazon.com or can be purchased via C&T publishing as a print-on-demand edition. Her Nautical Stars launched my obsessed journey with Mariner's Compass quilts.
