It’s a set of 7 of her beautiful notecards from her Free Spirit Fabric collections over the years. They have matching colored envelopes.

Jane and I have planned a wonderful cruise for Jan 14, 2013 and hope you can join us. It’s with Quilt Retreat at Sea and they do a terrific job to make sure that everyone has a terrific time. They are very personable and give special attention to make it an intimate cruise and lots of fun!

So, I selected the 11-day Holland America cruise that goes from Florida to Bahamas, Aruba, Cartegena, into the Panama Canal and Costa Rica. Doesn’t that sound fantastic? I love sun, beaches and snorkeling to see colorful fishes and sea life. There should be lots of that on this trip!

When the ship is at sea for 4 days, we will have a large room equipped with sewing machines and all we need to SEW, SEW, SEW! Jane’s class is Broderie Perse using her fabrics to make a flower collage with some of her art quilt applique techniques.  My class uses silks to make a quilt top with torn/raw edge pieces of silk from our book, Silk Unraveled by Lorna Moffat. Check out our video to see the projects.

We’re giving you plenty of notice so you can save up your time and pennies to take the ultimate quilting class cruise! If you are in Columbus, OH on Nov. 14 at 7pm, we’re having a cruise information night at our sponsor, Quilt Trends with fun, food, prizes so please come.

Now, to win the notecards, leave a comment here and tell me your best vacation ever! We will randomly select a winner on Oct. 16.

Visit Jane’s idea blog to see what she is working on.
