Hi Helen, Thank you for showing your colourings. I love the mariner's compass in multcolours. Had only thought of douing it in two. I shall rethink this now, as it will look cool with more to tie in with the other colours.
Happy New Year from Auckland New Zealand, where we have woken to a beautiful sunny New Year's Day. I have got my pattern printed as it was there early this morning and am ready to cut.

Silberregen, This is perfect. I really really wanted a coloring page. I made a copy and ran down to my sewing room. Dug out my colored pencils and gave it a start. I plan to
try a lot of different idea. In this one, I was thinking brown bias tape with the variety of green tree tops. Make my Mariner's Compass multi colored. This won't probably be the colors I go with. Maybe green grass instead of a road for the inner road. Thank you so much. I just wanted to let others know, that it is a great way to try out ideas and see what
you think. HelenW

I am debating between making it look Folk Art Color My World or going brighter with tone on tone batiks. I am trying a coloring page to just get an idea of what it might look like.
I have the flannel folk art, partially worked on. I like doing my planning before just jumping it. I love the way the quilt looks as designed, but I would like to use it in my house,
and it would not fit in at all. I bet I still change my mind a lot before I actually get started on it. HelenW
