This is a great machine, not full size ,but perfect to use to take to quilt classes very portable. There are several in this series. I have the 1040 and the 1060. The 1060 is more full size. The 1040 comes with a cute flowered case. Keep them out of the direct sunlight as the little extension table will yellow terribly, but they are very strong machines. Also known as a Kenmore featherweight because of it's light weight compared to some other compact machines.
