I have done rug hooking and keep a kit ready in a bag I also do bindings. With the binding I had a difficult time sewing black on black with black thread..but any other color I did fine. I have a small panel that I am big stitch quilting and that has travel far and wide with me.. Since I don't travel much anymore I take it to the doctors appointment and it's almost finished.
I can read, sew and sleep in the car in fact my DH prefers that I keep busy because otherwise I am directing his driving
which he does not like
