Ok...I would initially invest in basic machine, nothing too fancy...if you find a passion for sewing, you can always upgrade...a major factor is the thickness of the fabric you want to sew...thick denim will do best on a better machine...what do you plan to sew...Yorkie clothes? Purses? Skirts? Walmart.com and Target.com have a fair selection...I would stay between $50 & $150..anything less is probably junk...my Nana gave me her old sewing machine when she got a better one...it works fine for my purposes (light sewing)... honestly, before buying one I would talk to my aunts and female cousins...they are bound to have one they never use and might give you! FYI...always hit the clearance and remnant sections at the fabric store first, and if you turn your head left, the distance between your nose and your right hand is about a yard...good luck! |
