- Machine-sew the binding to the front of several quilts prior to your trip, and then use the time in the car to hand-sew the binding to the backs.
- Try hand-quilting a small project (or tackle a larger project if you are ambitious).
- Hooped embroidery projects are also good candidates for sewing in the car, because you can put them down and pick them back up easily.
- Many quilters find hand-stitching to be therapeutic, which helps alleviate any stress that might arise on a long drive.
