I know that people have very strong opinions about which machine to buy, but you can't beat a free one. I have a friend that would like to try sewing and maybe quilting, but there's no way of telling if she'll stick with it. I learned on a super cheap Brother. I have now not only upgraded, but I have also upgraded my backup machine, and have no further use of the Brother (except as a possible backup to my backup), so I've decided to give it to my friend. I am a strong believer that no one on a budget should spend more than a little bit on a machine if they don't even know if they'll like the hobby. Any idea how much it might cost to ship a machine across a few states? If it's too much, she may as well buy a new one, as new they only cost $89. Any suggestions on how to ship it? UPS? USPS?
TIA!
TIA!
