We are full-time RVer's living in a big Motorhome. I have all my sewing/embroidery machines with me along with a basketful of fabric. We are currently enjoying Southern California and temps in the low 80's. When I feel the need to visit or find a new friend I just put my machine outside on the picnic table and "poof" I get people stopping by all the time. I don't even have to be working on anything !
I agree with everyone else ... get a machine ! ...... New, used, whatever but get out there and meet folks/ start a project. Nothing is as boring as having many ideas going thru your head and not being able to create them.
