Here is a picture of the "newlyweds" with their quilt, only 16 months after actually getting married.

The happy couple with their wedding quilt, finally after waiting 16 months.

Oh, my goodness, Cyndie! That is fabulous!!!!!!! I took a class on paper-piecing a Mariner's Compass, but got so overwhelmed that I never finished it. I admire and LOVE your quilt top.

What a fantastic quilt... I'll bet you're thrilled to bits with it, and so are they by the looks of it!

I have left the "top" border off on occasions too.... and have plans to do it again. The first time was purely to make a quilt longer than it was wide, and once I'd done it I thought it actually gave it direction, it made it clear which was up and which was the bottom end.
