I've been browsing Craigslist a bit in search of a sewing machine, but I'm not positive what exactly I should be looking for since I've never owned a sewing machine before.
Basically I want to be able to make my own dog collars, primarily martingales. I'm always finding new pattern ideas for collars when I'm out and about and I'd like to just learn how to make my own fabric collars for my dogs since in the long run that would end up being cheaper than buying a ton of collars I want from various collar makers.
I'm looking for something that can easily go through heavy layers of fabric, easy to learn how to use and preferably not expensive which is why I'm looking into used. I'm hoping to find one under $200 if I can.
I found one someone is selling out here. It's a brother LS-2125i. She said its hardly been used, but from what I'm finding online its a lightweight machine for simple stuff? My guess is it wouldn't be good for collar projects?
