I would love to go too!!! I have been wondering how it all works. Will follow this thread as needed. I know there are a few coming up. There is one to Alaska, that I saw sometime back. Sounded like they supplied everything, sewing machines, fabric for the 2 quilts you make on the trip. I understand that most people only quilt in the early morning and evenings and they enjoy the cruise the rest of the day. Based on what I heard....which may or may not be....there are instructors and they help with everything. They have their quilt ready and on display and you get all the fabric to cut and put together and they are there to help out and give tips. They have drawing and other fun things during the cruise and they are available in the room where this all takes place for the most part for 8 to 10 hours of the day and into the early evening. You can sew away!!!!!
