We’ve taken the QUILT CRUISE world by storm! With our first Quilt Bee at Sea an amazing success, we now offer you the opportunity to CHOOSE HOW YOU QUILT CRUISE!
Catch the Aloha spirit when you join us for quilting and sewing fun on this amazing Hawaiian quilt cruise adventure. We have an outstanding group of award winning teachers and fabulous projects. BUT, if what you’d rather do is sit and sew – we have you covered with a dedicated sewing space just for you! If you like, bring your UFOs and join our exclusive Quilt to you Wilt marathon group!
Enjoy 17 fabulous days, relaxing, sewing, doing whatever you want on this incredible tropical journey. From the moment your board, you will be immersed in the inspiration, culture, colors and flavors of Hawaii. This is definitely a once-in-a lifetime quilting retreat at sea on one of Holland America’s loveliest ships, the Koningsdam. January is the best time of year to sail to Hawaii and we are taking advantage of the sun and the fun.
We’ve packed this cruise with hours of quiltmaking, adventures, relaxation and inspiration. You may choose to sit and sew or take on of the classes from our amazing teachers, Sue Spargo, Sandra Mollon, Lee Chappell Monroe. They have planned an incredible variety of classes for those so inclined to participate in a workshop.
Our ship is spacious and our classrooms are beautiful. Quilt cruises are a wonderful opportunity to join your quilting friends as well as make new ones who share this passion. The camaraderie is second to none; we’ve had quilters develop life-long friendships on our cruises. Non-quilters are more than welcome to join us, so consider bringing a companion or even your entire family as on-board or in port, there will be something for every interest. There are no additional quilt cruise charges for non-quilter who join us.
There are many sightseeing options available including optional private shore tours customized just for us (quilt shops included!)
