Which is a good sewing machine to purchase for a beginner?

Friday, April 30th, 2010

I would like to learn to sew some simple projects like pillows and chair cushions and also do some mending. Is there a brand or type of machine that you can recommend? Any that should be avoided? I would also like suggestions for a good book about sewing for beginners-Thanks!
