I got this Brother sewing machine for my daughter who has been wanting to learn to sew for a long time. It looked easy enough to use for someone who has never sewn, but like she could grown into it and learn more. The instructions were very easy to follow. They had pictures and exactly what you needed to do. Once she got the thread attached, she has been practicing all the time. She sometimes like to practice with the different stitches that it has as an opinion. She is so excited to continue learning and using the sewing machine. The design is nice and she loves that it’s not just plain but has the floral design as well.
