Antwerp

 On the 25th September we visited Antwerp. We had a bus tour and then a walking tour and we were very lucky to miss the rain. 

In the afternoon we visited Calico House which was another interesting quilt shop.

We then headed back to the shop and enjoyed some stitching.

Delft

 On the 24th September, we visited Delft and saw all the beautful ceramics and the Delft factory. It was amazing. We then had lunch in the town square and in the afternoon visited the very inspiring patchwork shop, Quiltstudiohetgooi. 

Amsterdam

 We settled on our boat and enjoyed a few cocktails and dinner. The next morning, 22nd September, we had a lovely morning of stitching and then spent the afternoon wandering in Amsterdam. It was lovely and warm!

The next day we had the most wonderful visit to Petra Prins patchwork shop right in Amsterdam. It was such a beautiful shop and Petra gave us a fantastic talk about dutch quilts and showed us so many wonderful quilts.

In the evening for dessert the ship had sutch proffertjes. They were delicious.
