We took the Alaska cruise in July 2007 and I hit the fabric stores in Skagway, too...I think there was 2 fabric stores in Skagway, if I remember correctly. I bet we were in the same one. One of them had a bench out front for husbands to sit and wait for their wives. LOL
I also found a fabric store in Ketchikan and bought a panel of an Eagle there and some coordinating fabrics. I haven't made that yet...maybe I should pull that out and get it done to remind me of the wonderful trip that was! :)
