Hi Everyone. I know a lot of you enjoy traveling and take your quilting projects with you. So I have a couple of questions, especially for those who fly. DH and I are going with another couple to Hawaii in December. I really want to take along my Tumbling Block diamonds to work on while in the air. I am hand piecing them rather than machine piecing. I have never attempted to get any kind of sewing equipment through security at the airport so I'm not sure what can and cannot be taken through.
I won't even attempt to take scissors but what about needles? I've thought about getting one of those thread cutter necklaces to take but was wondering if they really work. Has anyone used them? What should I pack in my sewing travel kit besides the blocks?
Deb is planning to take her crocheting stuff. Does TSA allow crochet needles through security? If so, I may take that too just to have a change if I get too bored with Tumbling Blocks.
Any suggestions and advice are most appreciated.
Hugs, Kim
