Lol, my husband suitably employed as both mule and pack horse whilst I shopped at the quilt shops in Skagway, Junneau, Ketchican and also Granville Island in Vancouver. He did pick out some wall hanging kits he thought would look nice in our house and as an early anniversary gift(which he will forget he paid for) a beautiful appliqué kit with a black bear in the sunset as a reminder of our holiday to bring back to then UK. God bless all understanding husbands of quilters.
