I sew on the Jenome Jem Gold. It's about 300 bucks. It's great. I like it more than all of my mom's computer driven fancy sewing machines.
There is only one thing about it that I don't like and that is it doesn't have the satin stitch on it.
But, I don't need it for much.
I've been sewing on it for a couple of years now and it finally had to go in the shop for service.
It's a great little workhorse though. I can't wait to get it back.
