I have a featherweight I like to take but if you are going to purchase one, Baby Lock has an Audrey that is really nice, small and lightweight. Good luck to you and many prayers for a speedy recovery for Mom.

Brother has some small lightweight machines that might work for you. I have a CS4000. It surprised me in that it doesn't do bad and it has 30 decorative stitches and they are up to 7mm in width. Much nicer than the 5mm decorative stitches. Healing thoughts going out to your mom and for traveling mercies for you. You are a good daughter to fly to be with her.

You will probably need to take an adapter, as I believe European electricity is 220, while most American machines are wired for 110.
Best wishes and prayers for your mother.
