I love road trips - I have time catch up on reading and thinking (dh is good enough to be the main driver). But I would also LOVE to have a laptop machine - think of all the projects I could finally get to without distraction! :-D I think there'd be a market for this....

but than I wouldn't be surfing the net and catching up on here........................LOL!!

Yeah, then you could plug the machine into the cigarette lighter, or the same one you plug in the cell phone charger. With the motor going, it won't take down the battery much.

LOL, yes, and make it be a cute one, like a FW!

you might be able to find a non-electric toy or featherweight machine to use on a lap desk in the car :mrgreen:

i once saw a tv spot where a husband/wife long-distance trucker team built a quilt space in the sleeping area of the cab. she was always on a shop hop LOL

I can see it now.......... then we would have to have laws that say "don't quilt and drive"

:lol:

We are driving to Georgia this week. I would love to have that drive time to sew!

My aunt used to sew on her Featherweight IN HER LAP. She did alot of sewing for her kids and for others and was always sitting in the living room on the sofa with her FW on her lap.
