Space Quilt
Todays Astronomy Picture of The Day from NASA is a quilt designed by a fan of Hubble Space Telescope photography. The 41 inch by 38 inch quilt was sewn by a woman named Judy Ross (wonder if there's any relation to the other Ross famous for sewing something that included stars?) The explanation on the APOD site includes links to the original images: Red Rectangle Nebula (Link), Eskimo Nebula (Link), Sleeping Beauty Galaxy (Link), V838 Monocerotis (Link), and Supernova remnant N49 (Link)

I was recently looking at Nasa images from the Hubble telescope and saw all of these beautiful pictures of stars and nebulas. Now I want to buy a quilt that has many of the famous astronomical wonders on them.

So, not so much of a patchwork space blanket then? :p
