I have gone on two Caribbean quilting cruises with Stitchin' Heaven. Went with a friend and the first time I had to be "talked into it" because the idea of a cruise just never appealed to me (saw The Titanic way too many times). But we went and had blast and it was ME who suggested we do another one!!! I found Stitchin' Heaven to be very organized and well-planned. You can sew 24/7 and classes are held during the day while the ship is out to sea, thus providing you with the opportunity to go on whatever shore excursions you may want to do. And in the evenings, you can see shows, gamble, or whatever you wish. (Hubby should be just fine wandering around the ship when you are in class - lots to see/do). In fact my friend and I are planning our next quilting cruise (which will be to Alaska) for the summer of 2019, just have to decide which one, as Stitchin' Heaven has THREE to chose from.
