Last month, Etsy announced that they were having a contest to celebrate the last flight of the NASA shuttle program. They partnered with NASA for this contest!

In the eleventh hour I was encouraged by my Friend Nakisha to enter my Spacewalk Bunny quilt. So I did.



I forgot about the entry until this evening. I was checking my views over at Craftopolis and saw 109 views of this quilt...which is WAAAAAY more than my daily average.

I hopped over to the Storque and saw that this bunny quilt was one of the 50 finalists in the 3D category.
You could have knocked me over with a feather.
Here is a link to the the 3D category:

Check it out and if you are of a mind vote for your fav!

The winner gets to have their item taken up to the International Space Station for permanent display there. Is that just too wonderful! 

Thank you for sharing my JOY!!

  2. WOW. Beautiful quilt!!! I missed that e-mail notice!! I would have loved to participate in that.

    The last flight...that is a scary thought when you consider we are just a big ol rock spinning 70,000 mph around a big burning star. We have to get off this rock!!

    Congrats on being a finalist!! I hope you win!! I can't even think of how exciting that would be to win!

    Crossing my fingers, and all that good stuff for you :)
