A Whale’s Tail – Alaskan Quilting Cruise
16 September 2023 - 23 September 2023

Come see the majesty and beauty of Alaska!
With mountains to climb, rivers to raft, glaciers to coo over and a bevy of bears to photograph, Alaska is the ultimate wilderness. From the moment you arrive, the raw, unspoiled beauty of the USA’s 49th state is almost overwhelming.
And, there will be whales. It’s one of the most watched for things during an Alaskan cruise. Watch for the spray and then a tail.
Stay tuned for a fun project I’m designing just for the cruise – it may be released it at a later date to the rest of the world, but you’ll get it first.
