Neat to read about this ... and just as our Canuck Astronaut Chris Hadfield returned yesterday, having done a gazillion firsts in Space.

I hope we can keep track of her efforts and see the results when she returns or when the quilt returns at a later date.

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