the trailer is 10 wide by 42 ft long. if I take out the wall in the back I can maybe have a quilting machine in there. I would love to find one reasonably priced that someone is trying to get id of because they can't sew anymore.

whoo hoo!!!! got the call from Fed Ex that my sewing scrapbox is in Minot and will be delivered Tuesday. oh boy.. Too bad I can't put it together until my trailer is moved to the permanent resting place this spring. I ordered it in the knotty alder color which was beautiful in the pictures.

My scrap box is here in my trailer. all ready to roll whenever spring decides to make its appearance, so my dh can get to work. the Fed Ex Semi brought it and I was his last stop, so you guessed it--my stuff was all the way to the front of the semi trailer. he had to carry it all to the back end and then get out and carry it to my trailer. 7 boxes. He told me the total weight of the box is 600 lbs. so anyone getting one of these better make sure they have a concrete or steel beams under the floor to hold that puppy up and then when it gets full it will weigh even more. Oh I'm loving this can hardly wait. Need to go back up there in the morning and put some mouse poison out, because we have mice and gophers running around out here in the country.

the dirt is moving in out here, getting ready to pull the old school bus out and move in the new sewing trailer that I purchased. I won't be worth a plugged nickel after we get started moving everything in, after it gets painted inside. Bought two rubbermaid cabinets at a sale the other nite and dh went to get them yesterday and put them in the trailer. Sure hope the weather continues to get warmer.

Well, have had rain, and snow, really wet so now have to wait till dries out some so we can finish moving the bus out. Then more fill dirt hauled in oh for warm dry weather

well, the bus is now out of the space. He is going to haul some more fill dirt in. then pack it. He said he was going to have to get someone to help him get the trailer in place. I will be gone till Thursday at job training, so I am anxious that the trailer will be in place when I get back. I will be posting pictures.

Ohhhhh any more pictures. I am a visual girl. It all sounds so good. I am so happy for you!!!!!!

Trailer is still setting on the hill, but I have purchased some little storage boxes and 2 large ones for the back room. DH said he could take the door off, but not the wall. It would still be plenty big enough in the "living" room area for a quilting machine. However, I have just found out that part of my heart is not working right and so no quilting machine. Will just be satisfied if I can get it set up in place for me to go play. I intend to cut back on work, so I have some time to play. will take pics if I am hoe the day they move my she cave.

The trailer got moved into place while I was gone to my brother's funeral in Elko NV. My youngest daughter is also home and is working on my scrapbox that I purchased to store all my notions etc in. It is quite an undertaking. Will post pictures when I figure out how to again.
