Hello everyone, My wife is having her 43rd birthday soon and has expressed interest for a couple of years now in learning to sew. Pressing her a bit, she mentions small projects like table runners, and curtains, but never clothing (yet) or embroidery. She does sew a bit with her mother, but doesn't consider herself very knowledgeable. So, I want to get her a nice machine on which she can both learn and grow. A note about her: she is a graphics designer who loves old fashioned style. Think Kitchenaide mixers. That was a big hit last year. It looks like it was born in the 20's but is thoroughly modern. Is there a good, old fashioned machine out there that fits what I am describing? I noticed the Singer CG-590. Any comments on it? I never saw a price on it, but I was hoping to limit the initial investment to $750. Is that do-able?
Thanks in advance,
Rich.
