I love these! Any chance the bag would be tough enough to carry the machines? Maybe some of the lighter ones anyway... Are they lined? Fully quilted? Inquiring minds....

As for not telling your wife .... get her involved, it will be more fun. My wife has been sewing since she was 7. That's a lot of summers ago. I just started last year. I like tinkering with the machines, but to know if I've gotten them right I need to use them.
So I've been making my bags and some quilts while my wife makes other things.

I'm still trying to figure out how to get DH involved.... he's clearly enamored with a couple of machines, from a strictly mechanical standpoint, of course.... The best I've managed so far is he helps me with the tighter bolts on the sewing machines, and he sewed his own button on his pants with the Rocketeer....
