Princess has just announced special pricing for my Mexican Riviera cruise. Already a great value, with teachers Mary Mashuta and Nancy Brenan Daniel, three days of classes, all the food you can eat, and the best of Mexico's tropical ports, the price now starts at $699 per person (double).
Please consider joining this relaxing trip on the "Riviera", the timing (November 7-14) could not be better to unwind and relax before winter brings on its hectic pace. Mary and Nancy are preparing some great classes; and the waters of the Mexican seas will inspire you for years to come. http://worldofquiltstravel.com/Mexico.htm

Quilts - Camera - Action!!
I have been on the phone this week with Gregory Case (quilt photographer extraordinare) discussing details of our Mediterranean Cruise next summer. Greg is planning some incredible things; you will even learn some of his secrets for getting those great shots of quilts that you have seen in over 80 books and publications. Greg is on the "hot" list of quilt photographers and his list of clients is the who's who list of quiltmaking.
However, he is the nicest person one would ever want to meet and he is really looking forward to being with quilters on a cruise and teaching us how to improve our photography skills, not just with quilts, but with everything. What better place to practice than the Mediterranean, with ports of call like Rome, Athens, Ephesus, Sicily and Crete. The scenery will be incredible and the inspiration for future quilts will be limitless! This is a small group tour with a restricted number of spaces, once they are gone, they are gone, do register early to avoid disappointment. Http://worldofquiltstravel.com/Medcruise.htm
But wait! While you are already in Rome, consider joining the Grand European Adventure tour - as we traverse the countryside's of Italy, Switzerland and France? Talk about a rewarding experience, this is the combination of my two favorite tours - and something that has been requested again and again. Check out the website for more.

Busy, busy
Summer has already been quite busy here. I cannot believe that July 15, just whizzed by, only how many weeks left to enjoy the great weather, family picnics and friends? Summer has always been my most favorite time of year. I loved it when my kids were home, there was always so much activity.
On July 1, I sent out an email announcement regarding upcoming tours, and by the response I can see there is a lot of interest in quilt related travel next year.
We still have a few openings in some of our remaining 2009 trips including our cruise on the Mexican Riviera with Mary Mashuta and Nancy Brenan Daniel coming up November 7-12. With a price starting at $749, who doesn't want to spend some time on the Riviera? AND, if you register by August 5, you could be the lucky person who gets their cruise absolutely free.
Also coming up is our annual Houston event, the Yokohama Quilt Festival in Japan, and the Christmas Market Tour.
In 2010, some very exciting trips are now open for registration. Announced July 1 and already more than half-full is the trip to England and Wales, which includes stopping at the historic quilt exhibition at the V&A museum. This is the first comprehensive quilt exhibit that the museum has had, and, having been in their archives, I can honestly say they have many of the world's antique quilt masterpieces. Do hurry if you have interest in this one, registrations are coming in fast.
As you may have read on the Blog, the Bali tour was a hit and we will go again next year, if you are considering this trip, do register soon as it is filling quickly.
An exciting Mediterranean cruise is planned for August - with noted quilt photographer Gregory Case. He will be giving workshops and providing demonstrations that will not only enable you to take great pictures of your quilts, but he will also be providing tips and techniques that will help you capture unforgettable digital memories of our trip. Space is limited on this one, so do register early.
If you have a lot of time on your hands, consider extending your vacation after the cruise and join me on my Grand European Adventure. On this trip you will have the option to visit historic sites and textile treasures of Italy and Switzerland, and extend your stay even longer with 10 more days in France. You may also opt for Italy and Switzerland alone or France alone. These are my favorite areas for scenery, inspiration and learning more about quilts and quiltmaking.
As you can see lots of things are happening in 2010 - please consider joining me on any tour, I would love to have you.
If you haven't already, do sign up on my email list at http://worldofquiltstravel.com/. Someone on the list will win a cruise this year, it may as well be you!
