My first cruise was with Bonnie Hunter and it was actually her first quilting cruise as well. It was fantastic! Made many new friends, still keep in contact via Facebook. It was so much fun going to the scrappy table and sharing everyones scraps of different fabrics.I ended up with such variety in my "Mai Tai in Paradise" quilt. It was a place where you could dig through the trash can assessing scraps and no one thought you odd! It was such fun. I also love photography and got lovely photos while on land! Go.... Enjoy whichever teacher you choose. I originally knew no one and had a blast!
