I can say from experience with this machine that it is awesome for the price. I bought one for my daughter who is just beginning to sew this summer. I fell in love with it myself. You might want to check it out for your daughter. It was easy to set up and use right out of the box. The instruction manual with it was right on.

I would even check out some used machines from a dealer. I know, used things for a gift...but she can get a much nicer machine for the money, with a few additional options :wink:

I started out on a Brother. It wasn't expensive and I still sew on it now and then. My son just got a new machine and is giving his Janome (the same one recomned by Ifw045 earlier) to my DGD. She wants a bigger machine. I guess the Sew Mini has been outgrown. He has done well with his Janome too.
