    Just think you could make a king size quilt and have wall-to-wall carpeting.heehee. I think I'll pass on that although it would make a nice size out-house. I can remember having those. Boy do I like my indoor plumbing. Winter sucks.

    It would get very old very fast for me. I would have to park it on the beach or in in some high tourist activity area so I wouldn't get bored. Now I would have loved to have one for each of my teenagers when they were home. :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:

    It would be an adventure and force us to GET OUTSIDE! It has wheels, so it is movable - heck, you could live in a parking lot! nawwwwwwwwwwww. Hey, what about living in that house, and getting one of those nice sheds at Lowe;s JUST FOR sewing equipment? That would work!
    I'm with you stitchinwitch

    LOL. That table might fit tiny dishes for four, but where do the people sit?

    It is an interesting concept. I like the idea of alternative homes, if that suits. I have often thought I wouldn't mind living in a converted railway carriage (with a studio nearby of course).

    It could be a good way for someone just starting out, at least the finances would be manageable and then you could move up if and when your lifestyle changed.

    Personally I need a little more room, but an earthship or a strawbale would be fantastic....just have to get the husband to agree!
