My advise is to go as big as you can afford. And remember, there is a lot of finishing off to do! If you have 2 rooms of fabric
:shock: , you will need a lot of wall space for storage and you might just decide to sew out there one of these days!--Sylvia

Thanks for all your helpful comments and suggestions. I have decided to do a 10x20(which is the largest I can do without a permit). It is barn style which will give me some additional above storage.
I may be along time before the inside is finished, but for right now just need the space to begin moving fabrics, shelves, bookcases etc.
Money naturally is an issue for me along with almost everyone I know.
I am going to do a diagram to scale to try and figure out the best use of the area available. :mrgreen:

I have a 14x70 2 bdrm mobile and it sounds like you may need a bigger storagebarn or 2 that size. Storage space is at a preium and I really had to downsize when we move here. I love my mobile home just wish I had more closet space. lol

I currently live in a 3 bedroom,2bath double wide with a 20 x 40' great room addition which comes to 2300 sq. ft.
No way could I move down to a 14 x 60 single wide from a 3000 sq. ft. home. You are a better person than I. I like my space. I would feel claustrophobic in anything smaller.
As far as the shed, what are the chances of you just adding on a room to the mobile home? That way, it is all connected. Otherwise, I would recommend getting more shed than you think you need, that way you won't run short on space.
As an example, our garden club higher ups decided we needed an 8 x 8 shed to store things in. We peeons tried to explain 6 x 6 was not big enough, that we needed a at least 10 x 10. We no sooner got it built and the powers that be realized we didn't have a big enough space. If you can afford it, go bigger.
