Sounds like fun. I plan on making a similar "to go" kit
but with a wool applique project.

That is quite a talk along project and should last you a long time.

Enjoy your new project!! I have a hand project I work on in the car on trips and so it goes slow, but someday....

I'm doing dresden plate piecing --- they're my "take-along" project. I plan on the Grandmother's Flower Garden for my next one!

I'm also making a GFG as my 'waiting' project. I love making it!

What a great idea. Will have to look into it. I know that Connecting Thread has free patterns for the GFG hex shapes to print out on your computer.

Good luck

I've been doing my GFG "take along" for at least 5 yrs. I hope I live long enough to finish it... I'm 58!! I don't think I can "take it along" when I die :-)))

don't make it real big! you can pass it along. I got my GM take along when she died and I never did finish it!

I love those smaler projects that you can take along with you... I have a hard time sitting still, need to keep my hands busy. I'm glad you found a project that works for you!
