I used it in the driver's lounge or took classes or sewed with the girls at the LQS whenever I had some lengthy down time. Yes, there was an article a few years back about a lady that quilted in her truck..not me...but she did hand quilting & had a frame attached to the roof of her cab & was able to drop it down to quilt on when they were stopped, not driving down the road. When I was at shippers or receivers that took hours to load or unload my trailer, I would work on something quilty. I always kept what I called a "truck project" going. I was able to cut pieces too. I did an entire applique quilt & a GFG while "on the road". The roads in this country are just too dangerous to try and use a machine in a moving vehicle. Here's 2 truck projects I did.
