I always take my FW when I travel, she is my constant companion. Even if I end up not using her, still have her. I keep a small pencil box packed with all the things you need on the road, extra needles, spool of thread, pencils, sm bottle of machine oil, etc. Will also cut out a number of blocks for the quilt I am working on at the time, put into gallon baggie, and put into the top of the machine case. Have FW will travel.....

Have fun! My DD bought me a machine case that looks like luggage to use when I thought I would be going to MT. on the train. Turned out I wasn't able to go but the case is going to come in handy for when I do get to go. Hope you win LOTS of $$$$.

Bring it if you can! When my son and husband used to ride quads in the desert I used to bring my applique projects and work on it in the motorhome. Someday we hope to get a fifth-wheel and while looking at them at the RV show the other day, I was already thinking....where am I going to set up my sewing machine! :)

You're not alone. I'm in Charlotte at a bridge tournament and didn't bring my machine, but did bring a queen quilt that I've been hand quilting since 1994. Maybe if I do this for the next two or three years it will finally get done.
