Hello,
I wonder if anyone can tell me if such a thing as second-hand embroidery machine's exist. I would really like to give machine embroidery a try but the new machines are way out of my price bracket. Besides, I don't know if it's something I would like/be any good at, so I don't really want to throw a huge amount of money at something that might end up as a white elephant.
I know the new machines have all kinds of wonderful functions and things, but I'd just like an old clunky out-dated thing that I could just have a go with, so if the concept doesn't work for me, I won't have wasted too much money. Do you know if they exist anywhere in the UK? I went to three shops in London today, but they all told me they never saw second-hand embroidery machines. Is it true, or were they just trying to make me buy new?
I only want to do embroidery on it, I'm blissfully happy with my 20 year old Janome for regular sewing!
Thanks for any help/advice you can offer. Caite
