    Sounds like you all have wonderful memories and now your MIL will also have this thank you gift. What a great way to show your appreciation. Love the quilt :)

    You did a great job on your twist. A local gal, Lisa Moore designed the pattern. I have one that is a small wall hanging with puffins. Did you stop in Sitka on your cruise of the Inside Passage? The most popular ports are Ketchikan, Juneau, Skagway and Glacier Bay.

    We went into Ketchikan, Juneau and Skagway. We also went into Prince Rupert in Canada. We were supposed to go into Glacier Bay but did not. Don't remember why. It was a great cruise. I was a little under the weather physically, I was still healing from Shoulder surgery and an infection I caught because of it. I would love to go again someday when I could walk around a little better!
