On July 16, 1969 the Apollo 11 mission launched, and on July 20th they landed on the surface of the moon.
This detail of the Apollo 11 badge on "The Space Quilt" by Pat Holly & Sue Nickels memorializes Neil Armstrong's famous words on the 50th anniversary of the MoonLanding.
Did you know that the borders of "The Space Quilt" by Pat Holly & Sue Nickels includes a stitched history of each space mission? (Take a closer look at the quilting in the red triangles... can you spot the shuttle with the feathered smoke plumes?)
