Sewing machine advice

[ibinitch.livejournal.com]

Hey ya'll :D this is my first time posting but i am an avid lurker. I am a girl of many crafts but i love sewing. When I was 13, I was given my first sewing machine and it was a disaster. After that I gave up on sewing until about a year and a half ago and now I sew by hand. I would love to buy another sewing machine but I would really like to avoid the disaster and wasted money this time around. I want one that isn't too complicated and will follow me through my sewing adventures and skill levels. Mainly my issue was threading and the bobbins and all that jazz. So I would love and appreciate your recommendations and advice on what sewing machine to purchase.

Thank you so much for your time
