After much consideration and reading a few books on how-to, I''ve decided it''s time to add a new hobby---I want to learn how to sew. I have the goal in mind of making my own wedding dress in two years, but I also am dead frustrated with never ever having clothes fit me right and would enjoy drafting my own patterns for clothes.
I''ve looked at the older threads on PS about this, and I had one main question:
Is there ANY reliable machine that will sew the fussy fabrics (silk, satin, etc), not break, and generally be solid and reliable without frills for under 500 dollars?
What about used options? My impression from the older threads was that you basically have to spend 1500 or more, and if that''s so it just isn''t an option for me.
Ugh, I am sure starting up my cooking hobby was expensive as well, but it''s paid for itself so many times over I don''t feel the pinch anymore...
Thank you!
