We have our regular home and a lake side cottage. I keep everything at our main home. I reserve just a portion of the quilting process for the cottage. I do a lot of hand quilting there. Find it very relaxing to do that over looking the lake. Lately, I have purchased a couple of kits. They are a great project to pack up and bring. Pack the kit, a machine and an iron. Store a smaller ruler, rotary cutter and mat year round at your second place.
