Two spaces for quilters are now available - we had been reserving class spaces for the Grand Prize winner on our recent Alaska cruise (the prize was a cruise package on THIS cruise) but that winner was already registered on this and our 2012 Hawaii cruise so those class spaces are available to two lucky quilters!
