My EPP kit comes with me wherever I sit and wait and thats why i plan to name the quilt "Sitting and Waiting": Doctors office, surgery waiting area, oil change, when car gets worked on, windshield repair. I started it when hubby had spinal cord injury 2.5 years ago...and spent a great deal of time in hospital. Unfortunately...I don't get to work on it often...but it will get done eventually. Maybe he needs another long hospital stay...LOL!!!

ReplyDeleteOkay - I must admit that I only sew at playgrounds that are toddler safe and pretty much empty. Too many other kids around or anything more than 3 feet off the ground makes it too hard to sew and watch him at the same time!
ReplyDeleteI'm far too lazy to cary a whole quilt / quilting supplies about with me to a public place. I'm impressed at those of you who are not! I do knit in public plenty often though.
ReplyDeleteWhen my children were little, I took my quilt with me everywhere and quilted. I quilted in the backyard while they played...and I quilted at CCD while I waited for them to finish class. That is one of my favorite things about hand quilting...that it is so portable.
