What a great quilt! I looked at the picture before reading your post and thought "how Adirondack" that quilt looks! Lo and behold, you write they live in the Adirondacks! They will love it and it is perfect for any home up there. People who live up there really get into the whole Adirondack theme. I am working a flannel that has some of that fish fabric in it! And I absolutely ADORE your border fabric. You did a great job.
BTW, I just have to comment on your tag line. Let me know when you find that job, it is my dream job too! Check out my profile some time. LOL
