My name is Jonathan. I am an independent fashion designer. I am here to help you answer some of your questions. A lot of people are asking me the same question again. So I am going to answer this question now. What is the best sewing machine for beginner?

There are so many kinds of janome sewing machine out there and for so many kinds of purposes.

First think about what kind of sewing you want to do. Whether you are going to sew a leather, quilt, fashion accessory, you need a good sewing machine.

After you determine your type of sewing need, go ahead consult Google, visit any sewing machine review site and do research for sewing machine. Check us out, what type of picture you will like to have for your sewing machine.

After you figure it out, my website will recommend you visit your local store or dealership or sewing bed store and tell the people there what kind of sewing machine you are looking for.

The reason why I recommend local dealership rather than buying online or through Walmart is that the people in local dealership are very knowledgeable about sewing machine. They would be more than happy to explain everything and anything you want to know about your singer sewing machine.

Also dealership often offer install services and warranty. So just in case anything happens to your sewing machine in the first year or two they generally would fix it for you for free.

Make sure you ask what the warranty covers before you buy your sewing machine. And in the future you can bring your sewing machine back to your dealership factory for servicing or fixing if you ever need one.  You can never do if you buy your sewing machine from mass sellers like Wal-Mart or target. A lot of dealership also offers free sewing classes. They would teach you on how to operate that sewing machine from threading and up to maintenance.

Amazon has good return policy and you find sometimes the manufacturers offering discount on amazon. So if you will want to buy online which I think is cheaper try to buy from Amazon.

For a beginner I would recommend you go for an entry level sewing machine from a good brand. Entry level machine usually have less stitch like straight, zigzag stitch and buttonhole stitch. The reason is at first just in case you decided that you don’t like sewing anymore then you don’t have so much money invested in it. You don’t want to spend so much on sewing machine you don’t know you would be able to keep up with.

An entry level sewing machine usually cost around 0. I know its pricy, but trust me it would save you a lot of frustration in the long run and it would make your first sewing experience enjoyable.  There are many good brands out there like Juki, brother, Janome,

It is very important to do your research before you buy. Last but not the least, just like buying a car, shop around for the perfect sewing machine price.

You don’t need to buy your monogramming sewing machine the first time you go to the dealership shop. Find the best deals out there and always test run your sewing machine to be sure it produces a nice, straight and fine even stitches.

I hope that helps answer your question! If you have any question makes sure to leave a comment here.
