I would NOT buy today's new Singers. The vintage machines are wonderful but Singer just isn't it nowadays. Of course, consider your budget first....then shop around. If you live in a area where there are dealers, I suggest buying one from good dealer. Visit their shops and see what other things are offered. If you are just beginning, it would be nice to have some classes at the shops. You will meet others who can be mentors. Learning to quilt is a journey and you do not have a clue where you will end up...so many techniques and choices. Keep us posted on your decision. There are also lots of experienced people here on the board that can help.
