Question by feuhrerfam: I want to start an online business selling home made purses. What sewing machine under 0 should I buy.?
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?

Best answer:

Answer by NunyaBidNess_PartDeux
Serger for hem binding (be sure it has a safety stitch)

Embroidering machine for specialty patterns.

A 1 or 2 needle straight stitcher

An off the arm (Feld-lok) machine

The ONLY way you are going to pull that off is to buy used or surplus, and then you are only going to be buying someone else’s headaches. Juki (Union Special), Brother, Yamata and Con-Sew are the best made..all the others are TRASH, including Singer.
