National Quilt Museum

The Stars are Aligned by Karen Nyberg

Open March 27 - July 30, 2024

Since retiring from NASA in 2020, Karen Nyberg has been working in her home studio to create art that celebrates her time as an astronaut, life in space, her family, and her interest in Earth conservation. Karen’s medium of choice is fabric and thread:  “I love to create textile artworks. The process of puzzling the fabrics and textures together engages both the technical and creative sides of my brain.”
