(Sniff) I'm so proud! DD1 finally bought her first sewing machine. A used one, since she's on a tight budget. Like everybody here, I advised her to look for a good old Singer, and she found a 401a with all the accessories, in a nice cabinet, for only $150!
Of course I would have just given her one of mine, but we don't live on the same side of the ocean. Can't wait to go visit. Roberta in D
Congratulations, that is a very good selection for your DD1. The 401 is a joy to sew on, and will grow with her as her as she gains confidence and skills....she will just love it -- I should know, I have two :)

Me too. What Taria said. That was my own first machine. I traded it in and Greatly regretted its absence. As soon as I could, I found another for backup. It is just wonderful that your DD heeded your advice and didn't get a piece of headaches and misery by buying a new cheap bit of junk. Polly
