Strip-Pieced Mariner's Compass Tablerunner
If you can strip piece, you can make this beautiful table runner.
Say the words "Mariner's Compass" to a quilter and you will sometimes invoke an involuntary shudder - either the quilter is not a paper piecing fan or the quilter does not like working with templates. The class will explore creating a Quarter Compass and Half Compass Blocks. Once you have mastered the technique, what can you do with this amazing block is up to your imagination.
