Just bought my Cricut Expression 2 on Friday and am SUPER excited to take it to crops and on trips with me. I want to find a tote that will fit and protect my Cricut (its like my baby right now lol) as well as store my tool kit and possibly extra mats. Does anyone have the cricut made bags? if so how do they fit everything? has anyone tried other bags? if so please post a link!

Don't have a tote..but was looking at the link you provided..that one is for the Personal Cricut, so smaller...if you look further down on that same page there is one for the Expression..not sure if the Expression 2 is bigger then the regular Expression tho. Maybe someone has it and can let you know. I have the Personal Cutter to carry around, it has a handle on it, so makes it alot easy and its much lighter then my Expression.

I was looking at this bag too but after reading the reviews I'm a bit leary because some people have said it doesn't properly fit the expression 2 http://www.amazon.com/Cr...amp;keywords=cricut+tote

 I was hoping to find something soon I guess I will have to do some more research. I've found some people suggesting sewing machine bags but they get a bit pricy!

would it be this one? This looks like the 2nd version- and it's a good price. I think I might have to order one too!

would it be this one? I've had this one and it's a tight fit for the E. I ended up selling it with my smaller personal size cricut. Check out ProudParents2005 on Ebay. They have the CGull totes which are FABULOUS!!!  The rolling tote is roomy enough to stash other crafty things in it as well. ~Angela

If you are still looking for a cricut expression2 tote bag; go to e-bay. In the search area, put cricut tote bag. They have several. I have the brown leather bag by CGull. It is fantastic - big enough to hold all the accessories that you wish to carry. I paid $80.00 for mine, but you may be able to get it cheaper on e-bay.

Try a sewing machine tote. I don't have the E2 (I have the original E) and I bought the large Tutto sewing machine case and I absolutely love it.....

I bought the green trimmed black leather luggage style popup handle one from Cgill and I love it. It has 2 larger snap type pockets on the outside and two long full legnth ones on the inside. The E2 fits very snuggly with the two velcro straps on the inside. Love my bag.

JoAnn's has a great tote for the E2. It is a purple suede tote, not sure of the company, but it is not with the Cricut supplies, but in the sewing department. I tried it and it is a roomy fit for the E2. Cost is about $33.00, and if you use a coupon, it is really reasonable. I look forward to being able to travel more easily with my E2

I tried to find the purple sewing tote on JoAnn's site but couldn't. Please help, I live in Canada and am wanting to find a carry case or tote for my Cricut Expression 2. Any other suggestions? Thanks.

I just purchased a CGull rolling tote for my expression 2 off ebay (from ProudParents2005). I payed $50 shipped. It has nice inside straps to hold my E2 in place as well as room for extra mats. There are 2 outside compartments as well that can fit tools, ect.
