Mariner's Compass for Felicity

I quilted this in Nov/Dec 2008 for Felicity. The photo really doesn't do it justice because it is a very pretty quilt. I quilted in red thread in the brown and outlined the compasses. It was not possible to quilt this one heavily because it is loaded with folded inserts as it is Cheryl Phillips pattern and technique. The little compasses in the border were paper pieced, however.

We each made one of these quilts for our 2008 spring retreat. I believe they are all done except Deb's needs to the top assembled and Tracy needs to quilt hers.

Felicity, Tracy, and Mom did the Mariner's Compass. Deb and I did the Persian Star. They ALL turned out very very different!!

Beautiful quilt, Felicity!!
