DAY 3: FROM PORTLAND TO THE COAST –
QUILTS, OCEAN BREEZES & COASTAL CHARM
Today, we journey to Oregon’s scenic coastline with a quilty stop in
Tillamook. At the Latimer Quilt & Textile Center, housed in a historic
schoolhouse, you’ll enjoy a private bed turning and explore heirloomquality pieces that tell stories through every stitch. Afterward, breathe
in the salty air as we arrive in the artsy town of Cannon Beach. Stroll its
galleries and beachside boutiques before a visit to Center Diamond, a
fabric lover’s dream just steps from the sand. We return to Portland in
time for dinner on your own and maybe a leisurely visit to Powell’s City of
Books—the largest independent bookstore in the world. B
DAY 6: SCENIC RETURN –
MOUNTAINS, ORCHARDS & MULTNOMAH FALLS
We make our way back to Portland, but the journey is far from ordinary.
Travel through the lush Hood River Valley, where fruit orchards and
snow-capped views of Mount Hood await. Enjoy a stop in the famous
Fruit Loop at a tucked-away winery, where a delicious lunch awaits
you. Then, marvel at the misty beauty of Multnomah Falls, a towering
waterfall that’s one of Oregon’s natural wonders. Back in Portland, we
gather for our heartfelt Farewell Dinner—a 昀椀nal chance to toast new
friendships and a week of quilty joy. B L D
DAY 7: ROSES, REFLECTIONS & FAREWELLS
On our 昀椀nal morning together, enjoy a Portland city tour and a stop
at the breathtaking International Rose Test Garden. With more than
10,000 blooming bushes, it’s the perfect place to re昀氀ect, relax, and capture
a few last memories. As we say our goodbyes, your heart (and maybe your
suitcase) will be fuller than when you arrived—brimming with fabric,
inspiration, and friendships stitched together one day at a time. B
