I first started piecing compass quilts in the early 1990's and fell in love with the curved design. The mariners compass pattern is not for the beginner sewer but with paper piecing can be accomplished easily with a bit of practice. The above quilt is a combination of a precisely pieced nearly completed compass and an astract collage of marble and dyed cottons. The imagination plays with the colors and many different ideas come to mind when I view this piece. Free form machine quilting was used with no single quilting motif used. The binding is a continuation of the design so that the compass can seem to float in the upper corner of the quilt.
