No embroidery on this one but this is what I have been working on. Finished the top yesterday. I plan on doing a whole other quilt top for the backing so it will be a completely reversible quilt.

Thanks for looking.

This is just a superb piece of quilting Shisha. Your Mariner's compasses are exquisite. I'm so glad you are making another side to it, I always have too much fabric left over and it's a great way of using the leftovers. Your quilts are all gorgeous. Love Chris

Thanks so much Chris! I am quite happy with the way the top turned out. Hoping the back will turn out as well. This is a gift I am making for my husband's uncle who is 81. He was the Captain of a tug boat during his working years - which is the reason I chose to do the Mariner's Compass.

pennifold by pennifold 12 Mar 2015

He will love this without doubt! Such a lot of time, work, patience and love has gone into the construction of this. WELL DONE!!! Love Chris

Thank you. It normally doesn't take me too long to make a quilt but I have some serious back issues so could only work on it occasionally.
