I also bring EPP w/ me for car work. No worries about car sick for me never had any kind of motion sickness ever.

Feathers-N-Fur

I can't read or sleep or ride in the backseat without getting car sick. However, I have no problem working on my EPP in the car. I think it is because I look up when I'm pulling the thread, I think that little bit of seeing things prevents the motion sickness. Most people think all I do is handwork because that is all they ever see me working on, but in fact I've only made 2 EPP quilts, just started my third, in 7 years. Have made many more by machine in that time.

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 .

A small size project. Good value contrast. No dark on dark. Have project well organized in little baggies with thread and hand tools you use. It's hard to look outside on a sunny day and then adjust to lighting inside the car.

I don't get car sick. Except when my father drove. He was always in a hurry. I seemed to get the center seat in the back with my brother irritating me....for his entertainment.

Jane Quilter

If it is more than a 2 hr trip, I always have a go bag. Any small hand work will do, ePP, YO YOS, quilting, applique, hand piecing, embroidery. My Dear Jane quilt was almost entirely a go bag project.

I have a few embrodiery blocks from the Pat Sloan's Splendid Sampler that I have worked on this spring both in the car and on an airplane.

Faintly Artistic

I'm traveling now...I brought several Dresden plates that needed to be appliqued to their background fabric and I embroidered each blade crazy quilt style. My DD ended up doing some as well.

I like to save my doll quilt bindings for road trips. I thread several needles ahead of time . I like to wear the stick-on thimble pads so I don't lose a regular one between the seat and door or have to fetch one rolling around the floor.

ptquilts

I always did hand work in the car while DH was driving. Mostly knit or crochet, tried quilting but it was too bumpy and I like my stitches nice and even and small. Made 58 crazy quilt blocks and did all the embroidery in the car.

I miss that now that DH is gone and I have to do all the driving - I didn't realize how much time I was able to spend doing hand work in the car.
