Hi, I'm new to quilting. I'm trying to finish my first little quilt but the Singer featherweight that I have is now broken in a serious way (oops). My fault, but, I'm not going to have it fixed. I will have about $300 (tops $400) to spend on a new machine and I was wondering if anyone could give me recommendations as to the best machine for quilting that I could buy with that amount of money? I know it isn't much because these quilting machines cost over $1,000, but I did get that little Singer for $60 on Ebay. I would like a machine with enough space to the right of the needle for me to make large quilts. But I might also use the machine to make clothing and other stuff later on. Does anyone have any ideas or is that amount of money going to be insufficient for a decent machine?
Thank you to anyone who responds!!
