I fly from Atlanta to Houston and back a couple of times a month to visit grand kids. I always have some hand-piecing or hand-quilting with me. I carry small scissors, needles, threader, thread and a thimble in an old eyeglasses case. If I'm piecing, I can usually get enough blocks in it to keep me busy for several hours. I never have any trouble, but I do have a lot of lookers and interested people. My first quilt was named "From Atlanta to Houston". The second one was "...and Back Again". For a while after 9/11, I took my thread with the needles already threaded on it and just broke the thread, but I haven't done that in years.
