To help celebrate TQHF's mission and our 2009 Triple Anniversary,
Deb Roberts Tours/Quilt Cruise for a Cause has offered to make The
Quilters Hall of Fame one the recipients of its first Quilt Cruised for a
Cause 2009.
To that end, Roberts has planned an incredible opportunity to attend
one of Europe's premiere quilt events, the British Festival of Quilts in
Birmingham, England (August 21-24), followed by a 12 day British
Isles quilting cruise on-board the beautiful Crown Princess August
24-Sept 5. An exciting group of quilt teachers, professionals and
historians are being gathered to share during this event, including
TQHF Honoree Yvonne Porcella, Kathy Kansier, the United Kingdom's
Sandi Lush and more!
Three of the 39 Honoree of The Quilters Hall of Fame are themselves
British: author and teacher Averil Colby; Shiela Betterton, author and
former curator of Textiles at American Museum in Britain at Bath; and
Amy Emms, the renowned English quilter and teacher who revived
Durham quilting in England and was appointed a Member of the
British Empire (M.B.E.) in 1984 by Queen Elizabeth for her "services to
quilting."
The Quilters Hall of Fame is delighted to share the news with you of
this exciting cruise in hopes of raising awareness of the great
internationally respected craft of quilting and to salute TQHF's three
British Honorees.
Please contact Karen Alexander at karenquilt@gmail.com for
additional details or sign up for the cruise at World of Quilts Travel.
