    Sandpat,
    You & Sally did a beautiful job. Keep the quilt, you can buy your own chocolate but can SIL make her own quilt?!?!

    I don't think they've invented a word to describe how awesome this quilt is. That's amazing! It looks so perfect it almost seems like it was done effortlessly. :D

    Absolutely gorgeous. Did you piece the border fabric or is it one piece in squares? Your color selection is wonderful. Nice work!

    WOW!!! all I can say is WOW!!!!

    I have always wanted to do a Mariner's Compass quilt. One of these days I will..

    I am curious about the outside border... are those all individual tiny squares sewn together or is it the actual fabric!! what a fantastic colour combination!

    I made a stencil of the swirly design, then traced around it with a water soluable pen. It worked great and was really easy to do!
