Several year ago I found a rolling suitcase at Walmart that fits my machine perfectly and has an extra pocket with places to fit my tools and some fabric. I paid $20 for it and am still using it. I've looked for another one several times, but they don't carry that size anymore. Wish I had bought several. Only came in black, but it works!

Hi,

I just bought a wheeled case at my Babylock dealer, it's two bags. One holds my Symphony or my Elegante and the other bag fits my embroidery unit....or just stuff I need! I really love them.
I had a wheeled case for years and was still using it, but it really wasn't made for my two bigger machines.....zipped, but with effort. My new one was made for the Ellisimo so it's pretty big.

I have 2 cases, one is a 2-suit suitcase (with wheels) that the machine just fits in the bottom perfectly with room on top for project and extras...the other is a padded cooler on wheels that is the right shape for my serger and has a bit of room on the sides along with zippered pockets on 2 sides and the top... the first cost me 21 dollars on sale with a smaller 1-suit inside and the cooler cost 12 dollars at the end of summer....

You are right, the machines are very similar. I bought the Quest new as a birthday gift to myself, then about a year later I found the 6500 on Craigslist for the ridiculously low price of $250. How could I not buy it. Now I can have two projects at the same time without changing threads, bobbins, settings, etc.

I have the Hemline set-and love it-it fits my 6600 easily-along with all the extras I wish to take along

When I bought my sewing machine, the woman who sold it to me suggested that I look at all the wheeled case options not just limit it to one's specific for sewing. I went to JoAnne's and ended up with one meant for scrapbooking. Love it. I put my sesing machine in the wheeled section. Then there is a bag which velcroes to the top of that. can be carried as a shoulder bag or stay velcroed to the top. Makes it easy to get in and out of the car.

I went online and looked when I got my case. I found one big enough at HSN.com. It is dark gold and came with 2 pieces! There is the large one for the machine and a flat one that fits onto it for cutting boards and rulers. It was the best price around!!

I am a scrapbooker too and this is what I use. I have had it for years before I even started sewing and my Brother fits in it very nicely.

I've been using a wheeled tool bag that I bought at Harbor Freight for $19.99. It works great for taking my machine to class with me, and has enough room in it to also include my iron and a lamp. A friend of mine just gave me a wheeled Koboda (sp?) tool bag for my birthday that is MUCH roomier, and will allow me to tote everything in one bag instead of in two. I'm pretty sure it would easily hold 2 machines. I don't know anything about a Tutto or what your budget is, but the Koboda bag is available at Lowe's for around $60. Hope this helps! :c)

I have a rolling case I got at JoAnn's with a coupon and it measures 19" across. It seems to work for me.

Check out www.allbrands.com - they have Tutto and Bluefig at reasonable prices and their service is fast and courteous. I have a Viking Mega Quilter I'd love to get a case for but maybe after the newyear. Good luck.

Well, JoAnn's just solved my dilemma. I received a 50% coupon in my email this morning. So I ordered the Hemline Deluxe case. The only Tutto they have is not big enough for either of my machines. I will continue to save my $$$ for a Tutto, but it may take a while. Then I will have a case for each of my machines. Life is Good!

Get the biggest you can find! Then when your machine is sitting out at home, you have an extra place to stash all those fabrics you bought when DH wasn't around!! Works GREAT!!! (Ask me how I know!! hehehe)

Wow!! Am I ever glad I read this post! That allbrands.com website has oodles of stuff - including a sewing forum! I may have to join that list, too!! It looks VERY interesting! There just aren't enough hours in the day.... Thanks for posting that site!!

Two years ago I got an $80 wheeled one for 50% off at Joanne's. Love it.
I want to avoid screwing up my back so it's wonderful.

My DH got me one from Hancock Fabrics about 5 years ago that fits my Brother machine and all it's stuff...including the slide on table thing. It was on sale for $40, and it has lasted this long, taking lots of abuse!! :-) I use it a lot between quilting classes at church, friendship group and quilt guild. I do need a new one soon, though, but I sure won't be paying what they want for the Tutto...that's way high!!

I have the large Tutto, they are expensive; but worth every penny. The Tutto has lots of pockets so you can carry a 11"x17" cutting mat and various rulers; most anything you need for a class or retreat.
I bought mine @ the local Bernina store when she had everything priced 30% off. It fits both of my Berninas and Pfaffs, it's too bad I need the huge size for my HV Sapphire 875.

I have several wheeled cases -- use them to transport several machines when I teach folks who can't afford their own machines. My favorite for my Janome 6500 was from Joann's. It's the largest machine I have and had trouble finding one to fit -- it just fits. I have another from Nancy's Notions, but must say it isn't as sturdy, looks nice, but doesn't have the exterior supports. Also have several cases that you just pick up and carry. Believe me, those on wheels are wonderful! They still require you to lift the machine/case up to the table and down again. I also lift them when I go down stairs so I don't jar the electronic machines. Wouldn't it be nice if we had some anti-gravity machines so there would be no lifting whatsoeve?. Perhaps in 2020???

I have one too, but mine is from Walmart. Got it many years ago and use it for whenever I to go retreats or meet at a friend's house to spend the day sewing. Unfortunately, Walmart does not carry them anymore. Mine was around $25 when I got it. If I remember correctly, someone mentioned there was a suitable carrier at Harbor Freight.

My sister got a new bag as the airline damaged hers so frugal lady I took the damaged bag. OK for around but haven't taken it flying. After seeing the damage to her bag I don't think I could let my machine fly.

I bought my wheeled case at Home Depot. It fits my Elna

I got my bag at Hobby Lobby when they had a good sale a couple of years ago. I would love to get a Tutto but mine is really just fine and I have had no problems with it.

I have a Baby Lock Ellisimo. I bought a Blue Fig case for my machine and a matching case for the embroidery module. They are perfect for my needs of classes once a month. They are roomy, easy to handle and decent for the price. I don't regret my purchase.

I have a wheeled cart and I love it.

I agree. I love mine. It was worth every penny.

What a great idea. You are too "sneaky"...LOVE IT!!!

I purchased a soft sided one several years ago and it is still holding up strong & I love it. It is large and holds my Kenmore and I still have room to stuff other items in.

try Tuesday mornings they have a full set of cases that are reasonable and will hold my Janome 11000

I bought the big black Singer tote from JoAnn's with a 40% off coupon. Could not afford to buy the more expensive tots at the time but this bag has more than stood up to the money I paid. I use it every week to go to my sewing group and then I have other activities each month like machine embroidery and I often use it when going to visit family for the day and have several items I need to take. I walk with a cane so it is handy to load my things in this tote and pull up the handle and goooooooo....

Wheeled case
 

I purchased a case thinking I would use it when I go to quilting. But the one I purchased from Fabric Land is a pain in the butt ..... If I were to buy one again I would make sure that it was not very heavy to start with and that the wheels were spinners. Like on the new suitcases. My wheels only go back and forth so the case catches on rocks and holes in the road and does not roll smoothly. The spinners will just roll any direction.

I love my Tuttos, especially the four wheels and the metal framework. They are very sturdy. Definitely worth the price, but shopping around is best. I have two mediums - one for my FW in her case and one for my Pfaff 2056.

Someone suggested Shoppers Rule - they do the make an offer, while showing full retail. However, Overstock.com has some and ebay has different ones.

My largest machine fits in a wheeled tool carrier from Harbor Freight. Not as elegant as the brand name bags, but it does the trick.

I have a wheeled case and do not use it. When it is loaded, it is too heavy to get down the steps and out to the car. Then have to lift it into the trunk.

So I have a small folding wheeled handcart that stays in the trunk. I put my machine into a small fabric carring case that is easy to carry, my supplies in another. Easier to carry and when going into guild, I pile them on the handcart with a bungie cord to hold them.

I got mine from Hancock's fabric on sale. I got two and I learned a valuable lesson after buying the first one; along with the pull out handle make sure it has handles on the bag as well. When you are carrying it upstairs of putting it in the car you can' t use the pull out handle because it'll end up breaking away from the bag. It needs the set of handles on the bag. I now have to get a larger one for my Ruby and can't afford the Viking bag.

I have two different wheeled bags. One is a two wheel, side pull that I put my Pfaff in. It fits fairly snug. The other is a Tutto bag that my Janome 6600 fits in. I was looking for the Tutto dealer at the sewing expo in Denver last year and they weren't there but there was a lady that had all sorts bags and totes that had one Tutto bag on clearance because she wasn't going to carry them anymore. It wasn't the color that I really wanted but the price was way too good to pass up. I find myself not taking the Janome anywhere though because it's so heavy. But since it doesn't have a permanent place to live here in the house when I don't have it set up it lives in the Tutto. I glued some 70s style flowers to my Tutto so it's customized.

I bought a two wheeled padded case in the sporting goods department for $40 (on sale) and added more quilted padding top/bottom and sides. Has lots of pockets and is just the right size for my Babylock plus room for the cords, pedal and misc.

I have the bluefig for my babylock espire, and love it. It works for me.

I have a Tutto and love it! I bought it a few years ago when the store had a 30% off sale. I use it a couple of times a month to take my machine to classes, and it has held up very well.

I use a luggage rack with wheels and I got a big bag from the good will that was big enough for my machine I use a couple luggage straps it works pretty good the wheels on the rack are larger than the sewing ones and the rack is really strong.

I have one I bought from Janome. I love it and use it all the time.
