P&Q Cruise to Norway

Were you one of the lucky people to go on our first cruise last year to Norway?
 
A great time was had by all by the sound of it! Angela Price, who organised the cruise with Jim West of Sew Many Places, put together a lovely video showing what went on. We also had a report on the cruise in our October issue last year.
 
If you would like to treat yourself, Angela has just emailed me to advise there are still a few places left for this year's cruise which runs from 17 to 25 May!


What could be better? Patchwork and quilting classes as you sail across the North Sea to Norway? Cruising up and down the fjords with inspiration around every corner?
 
This year we are lucky enough to have Judi teaching with us again. She will be teaching her 'Along the Waterfront' workshop which is a pieced and foundation pieced class inspired by the scenic waterfront of Alesund, which is one of the ports of call on the cruise.
Pam Holland from Australia has her Illustrative Quilting class where she will show you how to draw and quilt with a sewing machine!
Linzi Upton's class, 'Northern Lights' is a Nordic-inspired workshop which includes curved piecing and finally we have Stuart Hillard (of Great British Sewing Bee fame) teaching you how to make the Clamshell Accessories Case from Clover.
 
If you would like to find out more you can email Angela at angela.price@traplet.com or telephone Sew Many Places on 02393 880068.
 
So if you want to have a holiday with a difference with like-minded quilting ladies.........what are you waiting for?!
