I’m finally learning how to sew after passively seeking a teacher for years. And I’m loving it. I think I want to invest in a machine, but the options seem virtually limitless, and they’re pretty overwhelming. Any recommendations for specific features that I should look for?
TIA!

Sewing machine features
Depends on what you want to sew. For garments; blind hemming and good looking buttonholes. Walking Foot is always handy. Adjustable presser foot pressure for adjusting to less pressure for knits and light weight fabrics.
Take a few scraps for test driving the machine.
Buy the brand and model you like best from the dealer with whom you feel the most comfortable. A good dealer can make or break your sewing experience.
Best wishes for many successful projects.
