I want to use different fabrics and stitches for decoration and I want to be able to embroider with it and do a hem binding like for t shirts and stuff. Do I want a serger or a sewing machine? I heard that singers are crappy now that I should buy viking or beringer? I that true?

I have a Singer and… well, it jammed really easily and it’s really old, so maybe newer one’s work better.
My mother’s friend and also my mother-in-law are professional seamstress/dressmakers and she owns a Husqvarna-Viking Sewing and a Bernina serger. Both have never had a problem (not once) with either machine. Oh, they use both machines. When you start your business, please email me (email is same as my user name yahoo.com). I’d love to see your work and I love purses!
I have a brother sewing machine.Model #LS-1217 that I got at wal-mart for $99.00. It has all those features and works great. Good Luck with your business
Well I like the Singer that comes with the Gameboy to control the different stitches… but my mom has a Viking and has had it since she was in college, and it still works great! She’s 49 now!
Sergers are for binding seams. I do not think you can buy a reliable machine that embroiders for $300. The ones mentioned in other answers are quite pricey. Also repairing computerized machines in very expensive and depending on where you live it could be hard to find a repair person. Do some research and good luck.
