I've done this a couple of winter trips. We are snowbirds when my husband isn't working.

Work on small projects, like wall hangings or table runners. Get yourself a small ironing board, travel iron and a small cutting mat. Keep your sewing machine in a place where it isn't too much of a hassle to get it out, and keep the cord plugged in all the time--disconnect the machine from the cord, rather than the cord from the wall--same with the foot pedal. The less you're on your knees the better.

If you're staying at RV parks, many of them will let you use conference rooms, and some even have sewing groups and classes.

And last but not least, take some advice from Dick, Jane, Sally and Spot:

Look, look, look!
