Connie: I would not put an SM in checked baggage either. I would not take Pfilomina Pfaff as carry on because it would be difficult to lift into the overhead bin. I MIGHT consider taking Isaac FW Singer in a light canvas case so I could CAREFULLY slide it under the seat, or lift into the bin. When I travel by plane, I don't go places where I'd need an SM. Big quilt shows either have the SM included in the class fee or have them available for rental. Either way would be fine for me. When we travel in the car, I sometimes take the FW in the Joanne's case, with out the official FW case. I just pad it out with fabric and so on. This works nicely for me. PAT

Good point, Donna! After all, if we over load our cases and cause shoulder or back injury, our quilting time and fun will be shortchanged! PAT

Pat, the poor thing has to go naked. However, the case it came with was only a canvas thing, so it wouldn't add much protection anyway. There are straps inside the Tutto bag, so my lovely 630 is held quite firmly in place -- I have no doubt about its safety. :)

LOL! It does get out about 2-3 times a year, other than for its annual servicing. The rest of the time it's housebound, and I try to keep it busy enough that it won't get cabin fever. ;)

Pat - I would use the case for my Pfaff. My other machine, a Janome 3018, doesn't have a case so it goes in naked ::blush:: It manages just fine........I didn't even know there were straps so it would go in without being belted down. Naked AND loose!!!! LOL!

Joann Fabrics now carries Tutto cases on their website. With a 40% or 50% coupon, it's a good deal!

Happy Shopping! Laurie

One of my cases is from JoAnns and it does have two handles on the short sides, I think you just have to see what is available. It's taken quite a beating too, I've dragged it several blocks on foot, over speed humps and whatnot.

My original JoAnns rolling case doesn't have handles on the short sides, but the one I purchased recently does - as well as all the separate storage containers packed inside, that slip over the rolling handle. I like my new one better.
