Paegan OFFLINE Posts: 9	I'm posting this picture to show youhowI machine quilted my lastest Mariner's compass quilt. Instead of stitching in the ditch, I stitched another row of "spikes" . It's a bit blurry as I enlared the picture. You can still see the quilting lines I drew on the quilt

I appliqued an oval 32 point Mariner's Compass medallion in the center of a stack the deck background and added borders. I love the effect but am now to the machine quilting phase and realize that I'm not sure how I am going to quilt the compass part. Just in the ditch?

Anyone have any ideas? Tips? When I get done, I'll post a photo. It really did come out great. I just have this TEENSY, WEENSY little bit of the quilt to finish...
