Sew Much Fun Hong Kong
December 3-11, 2024
Travel is good for the soul…and it’s good for the fabric stash as well. Who among us hasn’t Googled “fabric stores” when we’re headed to a new city? Or even a new country? We have a never-ending sense of curiosity and seem to be afraid of “missing something.”
Get ready to pack your bags and broaden your horizons. We’re thrilled to announce that our Sew Much Fun Tours are back in action and we’re jetting off to a favorite destination – the vibrant city of Hong Kong. This journey promises not only a feast for your soul but also a delightful addition to your fabric collection. We’ll be shopping markets for fabric, notions, jewelry, beads, and more. There will be a behind-the-scenes tour of a costume shop, visits to designer outlets, a Tai Chi lesson, and much more. It’s time to get back on the road, or in the air. There’s fabric out there calling your name!
I’m happy to be a part of that by escorting my 22nd tour to Hong Kong this December 3-11, along with my friend Pauline Richards. We’ve done this tour together for many, many years and know a lot about the alleyways of the city, and where to find most anything you could want in the way of fabric, trims, buttons, etc. And, if we don’t know where to find it, we know who to ask.
This year we’re doing something a bit different than in previous years. In the past, many of you have used award miles for the trip, or you wanted to go early or stay longer, or you wanted to go on a different flight from your home city, so we said “OK, let’s offer the tour without airfare so group members can do that.” This year, you can book your own airfare. We’ll tell you which flight we’re taking if you’d like the security of being with your guides, but you have the option for other arrangements.
If the idea of an Asian jaunt intrigues you, view our Information/Registration Form to find out more or sign up to join us. And if you have tour questions, feel free to email or call me at the number listed on the registration form.
We hope you can join us on this adventure!
