clhdabb OFFLINE Posts: 688 Thank you received: 67	Thanks, Betty Ann! I was able to see Dr. Jan Davis' quilt block on line. I was so unaware of it all! Had I ever known, I'm sure I would have remembered because, coincidentally, I have a cousin named "Jan Davis". My cousin, however, has never been in space and doesn't even quilt...as far as I know!

clhdabb OFFLINE Posts: 688 Thank you received: 67	Margarita~ I completely missed the "quilt block in space" aspect of Sally Ride's historic trip! If you can find her design can you post it? I have googled for quite some time now, and can find no reference to it. Thanks!

MargaritaW OFFLINE Posts: 705 Thank you received: 42	Sally Ride died today. She was the first American woman astranout to go up in space. She designed a block, which she had made and took on her trip to outer space. I wonder if I can find my copy. Margarita in Auburn, California
