what sewing machine should i get?
I really don't know how to sew...hahaha! BUT, I figure I can maybe take a basic class or something once I get a machine. I want to be able to make new pillows for the couch, curtains, etc. I'm figuring it will be a good hobby to take up too. So what type of machine do you recommend for a beginner?

I wish I knew how to sew. If you ever find out where they have classes I would be interested.
As far as machines, I have seen some at target and they didn't look that expensive. But then again, I don't really know what features that one needs.

You can get one that basically does all of the work for you - Not sure which one my Mom has - But I don't know 'how to sew' and I've usedhers to make pillows, curtains, etc -

I know that most school districts offer adult ed classes and that's where I plan on looking first. Maybe Michael's AC Moore too!
ps...thanks for your help ladies! I was encouraged to see that you can apparently get a decent machine for under $100 I'm adding one to my Christmas list!
