Stitch at Sea 2.0

Exciting announcement! I'm heading back to Alaska aboard the Celebrity Infinity next summer and I'd LOVE for you to join me.   If you want to see what we got up to last time, check this post or have a look at my flickr photo album here


Hubbard Glacier, AK

On September 11, 2016 we'll once again depart from beautiful Vancouver and head north up the Inside Passage for ports of call in Icy Straight Point, Juneau and Ketchikan, plus spend a morning floating in front of the massive Hubbard glacier (above) that is a sight to behold.  In the down time while the ship is sailing and after our shore excursions, we'll sew to our little heart's content in our dedicated conference room.  There will be specific teaching times and also free-sewing time; participants can sew as much or as little as they desire. This time we'll spend the week working on one bigger project, my delightful Cutting Garden Quilt pattern!

 We had such a fun week last June and I am so looking forward to doing it all again; the fabulous door prizes, goody bags, shore excursions, quilt shop welcomes at every port, amazing food, drink, dancing and soaking in the therapy pool. I think almost every member of our group saw whales. I even caught a glimpse of a grey whale and an Orca mama and baby.  You could follow my, Katie and Joan's lead and go ziplining, or head out on a whale-watching boat, go for a hike or choose a kayak tour. Perhaps you'd like to dine out at an authentic salmon fry?  There are a ton of fun things to do in the ports!

This cruise is surprisingly affordable for an all-inclusive 7 nights. If you'd like to know more about the amazing Canadian Resident deals on offer from Celebrity right now (free beverage package and gratuities!!), or to add your name to the list for updates, please leave your email address in the comments and I'll put you in touch with our agent, Lynn.
