I am looking to buy a machine to sew leather binding on some German weave carpet on a truck I am working on. I also plan to use it for some other auto ulpulstery (leather headliner, seat, etc). I also wouldnt mind doing somw leather work. I have never used a sewing machine so I will be learning from ground zero. I did some research and the Juki 1541s looks like a great machine. What do you guys think?
