Mariner's Compass

[MTCowpoke22]

My aunt asked me to make this for my cousin's recent college graduation. After a made my own pattern I realized it would've been a lot easier to buy a quilter's pattern. Cut it all free hand, so if you look really closely, you'll likely find a few spots where it doesn't fit as well as I wanted it to. 8 different woods used. Maple and Walnut for the center main triangles, Cherry/Cedar and Hickory/Russian Olive for the smaller triangle points, Aspen for the outer edges, and Purple heart for the boarder.

It's beautiful.  Did you use different thickness as well?  The main part looks higher than the rest.
