This is Holly's Mariners Compass. These blocks are pieced, and then appliqued to the back ground fabric. I quilted this on my home machine. Between the stars it is free motion quilted, and the border and edges are stitched in a zig-zag fashion. I also put some strategically place prairie points in few places around the border. I re-learned those at the Olathe quilt guild meeting. But I remember doing them as a child, with my mom.
This little quilt was made for Faith, my co-workers daughter. I also machine quilted it, and used decorative stitching. My favorite part though is the felt flowers with pink button centers.
