Greetings, all! I am new to quilting and have only a 1949 Singer. It served me well with my first and only project -- a table runner -- but I understand that my Singer has its limitations! Now that I know that I am signing up for more classes, I would like to invest in a new machine, but so many choices! How does a new quilter know what to buy? Maybe I should even consider looking for a well maintained used machine...? Anyway, thanks in advance for any of your suggestions. ~Calli
