    That's my idea of thinking........you could have the "shed" all to yourself! But it would be a little cramped for me, I have lived in a 18ft. trailer when I was young but couldn't make it up the ladder these days! :>)

    don't you think we have been accustomed to being spoiled. Just think of the homeless, or those in Africa that just live in the brush....now picture YOUR home. At least in that small home, we wouldn't be able to have all the chatskies that we all have now. Wouldn't it be an adventure to drive and park throughout the US, stay a while, and then drive off to the next town or state?? A very nice learning experience - would be able to see how the other half lives.

    We did the travel thing in a 36 foot 5th wheel and I loved the travel and meeting new people but I sure missed my stuff and had to buy a sewing machine because I hand quilt but don't hand patch.

    we have a little motorhome that we use for travel - our longest trip was 50 days so far - it is small for two of course but we are camping and expect it to be inconvenient at times. I could never live in it full time!! When we do use it though I only bring hand work already pretty much ready to work on. We have about 140 square feet maybe so a little bigger than this guys house. At home though my sewing room is bigger than our motorhome!
    It is neat for the environment though and for one person who is not a quilter I can see it working.

    I could.
    In fact, I have thought about it.
    1 machine is enough & buy fabric
    for one quilt at a time.
