I had looked up the Tutto case for transporting it, but was concerned about the lack of padding on it. Of course the dealer has luggage specifically for the Destiny! That was on sale too. To be sure, this is not a machine that you take out of the box and sit and sew with it. There are soooo many bits and accessories... where to start?! And the manual is 600 pages. I had to call the dealer because I had trouble finding how to start sewing as it comes with the embroidery foot set up... couldn't get the regular foot to attach and feed dogs to come up. It is very large, it takes up my entire sewing corner. The largest hoop 9.5x14 is on the wall and the smallest is on the machine.

This is the small accessory box. The feet clip in so they can't spill out. Lots of room for additional feet and other items

But the box is somewhat slippery and cumbersome to move around the sewing area. So I made some carry handles for it. [the straps are equal length, one is leaning back]

The very large [computer] screen comes with pretty flowery screen savers. However, you can upload your own. So I put 5 pictures of my grandkids on it

I've been very busy this week, but did manage to sew a couple of things... a panty purse for my musical granddaughter's birthday today and a label for a tote for the larger accessories, which I'll get to soon.

My first class is this Saturday. Thanks for sharing my excitement.

She is a beauty...Enjoy...
