I hate it when people look down on us for what we have or don't have. I have expensive machines and cheap machines. These same people can't tell which one I have used to sew or embroidery on. I am just a poor girl from Arkansas and try to do the best I can. That is what most people do. I am always looking for a bargain and am not ashamed to say I buy cheap when I can. We have a Singer Dealership here where I live and they are so sweet to me. They are all wonderful people and would never make fun of any machine I have. As some of the others have said, just go ahead and get what you can out of this class and look around to find another one you might enjoy more. I have a Brother and it is cheap but it will sew anything. That was the reason I bought it because it will sew thick material.
I guess I have ranted long enough. Enjoy your Brother and learn, that is what I am doing. Have a great day. Joy
