Awesome Quilt Featuring Mariner`s Compass Stars

Awesome Quilt Featuring Mariner`s Compass Stars

Marie Glenwright from York, PA shared her quilt that has been accepted in the AQS Lancaster show. Marie wrote the following description: It's 54"by 54", hand pieced, appliqued, quilted and embroidered.  The block in the middle is the Switzerland block, outer middle is the China block then around the outside is 4 Germany blocks with 4 applique that I made from a stencil ( that I enlarged ).  I purchased at a home improvement store.  After finishing the quilting I thought I'd do a "little" embroidery on the front and back. Good luck Marie and thanks for sharing your spectacular quilt.
