Here is my almost finished 3D Mariner's Compass. I just need to add the binding and figure out what to put in the center. I am not really liking the fabric choice I made for the top four points. Mixed with the other fabrics I feel it is too light and all in my face. I suppose that is what I get for picking fabrics from my stash late at night without good lighting. I tried to add a big purple circle in the center, I even had it appliqued on and quilted down, but I didn't like it. So I picked it off. Now I am not sure what to put in the center. Maybe a smaller circle in white?
I ended up sewing down all the points too, so it really isn't 3D anymore, but I didn't like the way they flared out.
I only had a fat quarter of the purple I used in the points and I want that for the binding as well, so I will have to head to the fabric store to see if I can find more.

would you consider a small pieced star in the center? If you google Judy Mathieson images, there are some examples.
