Suggestions on a New Sewing Machine vs Me Messing UP
Greetings!
First of all I love this forum!
I currently have a Brother XL-3500i. I am impatient when it comes to sewing esp when the machine messes up. The only formal instruction to sewing that I had was in high school but that was over 40 yrs ago. I always have what I think is a tension problem (the sewing looks ok on the top side but has loops etc on the bottom) or I end up with a glob of thread that I physically have to pull out of the machine. I have posted other questions about this and tried to resolve the problem.
I am wondering if its the machine or me but the next time I buy it will be at a place which offers lessons.
Any thoughts as to what kind of a machine I should buy? I don't want to spend over $300 since I only do simple quilting.
Thank you!
