I envy your mode of travel, you must have great fun. This quilt is a terrific way to remember - maybe a new slant on scrapbooking! And what a fantastic border. Keep up the travels and the good work.

What a wonderful quilt. Filled with great memories for you and your hubby. I love the quilt rack too. He does wonderful work. Great job to both of you and thanks for sharing.

What a great idea! I'd love to see some shots of the individual blocks.

I found it on Ebay. Was actually a bright white with the map on it so I used tea and coffee and a tan dye to get it the color I wanted. Is so cool because it actually has our hometown on it. It kind of looks like someone might have printed it themselves. I just love it and it was perfect for my quilt. I'll try to post a few close ups in a day or so.
