Students Part 3

Good things come to those who wait. Irene, from northern New York (think above Watertown), figures she took the Mariner's Compass class at least 2-1/2 years ago. She remembers because her grandson was born while she was working on the first one and he is that old now! Time sure passes quickly. Irene hand pieced this stunning compass--and was happy with my suggestion to use this particular background fabric.


When she made the second one, she decided to use all tone-on-tone prints for a pastel version.

Then she went all the way with a 32 point compass! I do believe she is addicted to hand piecing Mariner's Compasses! Look at those points! Way to go, Irene!

Tomorrow is Thanksgiving here in the United States. Let's all be extra thankful for our many blessings. And one of our greatest is our friends. Near or far, they sustain us in good times and bad. Let's also pray for an abundance of good times in the years to come.
I'll share a bit of my abundance with you tomorrow! No, it's not the horses. It's something you'll never in a million years guess! But you are welcome to try--no prizes will be awarded--even for the wildest guess! (Let's face it, there were some really wild guesses about what I was doing over the summer--such imaginations!)
Til tomorrow!
Hugs,
Sharon
