topic Help with Sewing Machine Purchase please .... in Home https://community.qvc.com/t5/Home/Help-with-Sewing-Machine-Purchase-please/m-p/328403#M6853 <P>I'm a real beginner. I know nothing about sewing or sewing machines. However, next tuesday I have a sewing lesson and I need to have a machine! I have a project I want to work on with my teacher, and we will be sewing more custume-like things - working with some thicker fabrics, like faux fur (the stuffed animal type of faux fur) and maybe some felt. I have identified two machines at this point and wonder what you guys think and which you would prefer (for me). I'm also open to suggestions. I'd like to spend 150ish or less.</P> <P>I'm going to try to post the amazon links for the machines I found so far .....</P> <DIV class="message" style="display: none;"> </DIV> <P><A href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000JQM1DE/ref=ox_sc_act_image_1?ie=UTF8&amp;psc=1&amp;smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER" target="_blank"> <IMG src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/414a+nfEyrL._SL500_SS100_.jpg" alt="/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt; &lt;div id=" item-block="" /> </A></P><DIV class="item-info item-info-left"> <P class="title active-item-title"><SPAN class="product-title"><A href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B000JQM1DE/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?ie=UTF8&amp;psc=1&amp;smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER" target="_blank"> <STRONG><SPAN style="color: #004b91; font-size: small;">Brother CS6000i Feature-Rich Sewing Machine With 60 Built-In Stitches, 7 styles of 1-Step Auto-Size Buttonholes, Quilting Table, and Hard Cover</SPAN></STRONG></A></SPAN><SPAN class="creator"><SPAN style="color: #666666;">- Brother</SPAN></SPAN></P> <P class="title active-item-title"> </P> <DIV class="switch-position price-buy-pos"> <P class="ourprice">$154.99</P> <DIV class="message" style="display: none;"> <P style="display: none;"> </P> </DIV> <DIV class="cart-item"> <DIV id="item-block" class="item-min-height"> <DIV class="item-image item-small-image"><A href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0039YOVRW/ref=ox_sc_act_image_4?ie=UTF8&amp;psc=1&amp;smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER" target="_blank"> <IMG src="http://ecx.images-amazon.com/images/I/4140NDJGuSL._SL500_SS100_.jpg" alt="/&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt; &lt;div class=" item-info="" item-info-left="" /> <P class="title active-item-title"><SPAN class="product-title"></SPAN></P></A><A href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0039YOVRW/ref=ox_sc_act_title_4?ie=UTF8&amp;psc=1&amp;smid=ATVPDKIKX0DER" target="_blank"> <STRONG><SPAN style="color: #004b91; font-size: small;">Brother CP-6500 Computerized Sewing Machine</SPAN></STRONG></A><SPAN class="creator"><SPAN style="color: #666666;">- Brother</SPAN></SPAN><P></P> <DIV class="switch-position price-buy-pos"> <P class="ourprice">$127.42</P> <P class="yousave"><SPAN class="txtnormal phone-gray">You save:</SPAN> <SPAN class="txtnormal savings">$221.58 ( 63%)</SPAN></P> </DIV> &lt;!-- switch-position price-buy-pos --&gt; <P class="availability green">In Stock</P> <P class="sss phone-gray">Eligible for FREE Super</P> </DIV> </DIV> </DIV> <P class="yousave"><SPAN class="txtnormal phone-gray">You save:</SPAN> <SPAN class="txtnormal savings">$294.01 ( 65%)</SPAN></P> <P class="yousave"><SPAN class="txtnormal savings"><A name="active-C1QUGG6CYQOY34" id="active-C1QUGG6CYQOY34" target="_blank"></A> </SPAN></P> <P class="yousave"><SPAN class="txtnormal savings">Hopefull these links work!
