To me, what is most important when looking for a machine is that you can thread it easily and that it has the basic functions you are going to be using. Sometimes it is better to go for a simpler model because some of the fancier machines have lots and lots of functions that you won't really need.

>> Hope everyone is doing well and look forwards to meeting you. Also any links to sewing machines that you have used that are easy for a low-sighted/totally blind user.
