American astronaut Karen Nyberg is taking quilting supplies to do some quilting in space! How cool is that.

Ah, and I thought it was hard to quilt in my fifth wheel. Hope she is doing hand sewing, how could she catch her floating machine......lol.

How neat! I hope another astronaut will take pictures of her quilting. I am so curious to see how she manages and what she creates.

This is cool but I hope she dosent use a rotary cutter. That could be dangerous.

Does anyone here keep their "stuff" in one space, but sew in another space?
