Guiding Star

I created this quilt for my father. He has always been so good at leading me in the right direction. I designed the mariner's compass on the computer and completed it by paper piecing. I love the depth of color in the batiks. The center map fabric was a great ebay find. If you look closely you can see that I machine quilted a contour map of my hometown and the surrounding cliffs into the center of the quilt. (Completed 2013)
