2027 Alaska Quilt Bee at Sea to benefit the International Quilt Museum

 We’ve designed a truly unforgettable 14 day off the beaten path Alaska quilt cruise adventure and you’re invited to be part of it! Even better, your participation directly supports the International Quilt Museum in Lincoln, Nebraska—a wonderful way to combine your love of quilting with a great cause.

This once-in-a-lifetime journey takes you along the breathtaking coastlines of Alaska. Our onboard workshops, creative inspiration, and lots of laughter as you stitch your way through this northern adventure. It’s the perfect blend of creativity, culture, and camaraderie. In addition, by popular demand we have brought back our dedicated open sewing room so you can sew on whatever you wish during our workshop times.

Please note that the listed cruise event pricing is in addition to the standard cruise fare charged by Holland America. This additional fee helps us cover the costs necessary to host this special event—such as teacher cabins, travel expenses for our expert instructors, and any onboard event space charges. By booking this cruise, you agree to pay this event fee along with your Holland America cruise fare.

Join us in 2027 for an unforgettable quilting experience in the majestic beauty of America's last frontier.

Due to unforeseen circumstances the itinerary and/or teachers may change.

BOOKING INSTRUCTIONS:

Each space you select when booking is for one person—not one cabin. 

If you are sharing a cabin with someone but are not paying their fees, we strongly recommend that each person books individually under their own name and account. This ensures that each guest receives their own invoice, booking confirmation, class information, and all trip-related updates. Only the person who completes the booking will receive communications from us, and once a booking is submitted, we cannot divide or transfer it to another person. Additionally, no one but the original booking contact will be able to make changes to the reservation.

If one person chooses to book for two individuals and pay for both, that is perfectly fine. However, please understand that only the booking person will receive any emails or invoices related to the reservation.

When booking a shared cabin, each guest must be listed as a participant with their full name and date of birth. Please do not list the same person twice or indicate that you have a roommate if one has not been confirmed. Bookings with duplicate names or missing placeholder information may be voided (canceled).

To ensure you are placed in the same cabin as your travel partner, there is a section on the booking form where you can enter your roommate’s name.

***Note, if you are planning to participate in quilting activities, please add the I AM A QUILTER OPTION.  You cannot participate in quilting activities unless you do.

BOOKING NUMBERS ARE PROVIDED WHEN THE CABIN HAS BEEN PAID IN FULL - When you pay in full please notify us at worldofquiltstravel@gmail.com otherwise we are not made aware.

You will receive a confirmation of your booking immediately.  If you do not, your booking did not go through.  Please re-book. We are not responsible for incomplete bookings.
