I am in the throes of completing a 64 point Mariner's Compass wall hanging for my son. The 'compass' is 24" diameter and is on a black background (with small gold stars) 32" square. In each corner is a small quarter star say about 4".
Now the question: I need some suggestions on the quilt design . I had thought the Mariner's compass should be quilted by 'in the ditch' (really the only option I guess) and my other thought is to quilt lines radiating from the point of the compass, likely in a yellow thread. Not very original, I know, but I think I must be careful not to make it overly complicated. I would appreciate your suggestions.
