Knights of the old Republic has been on there for a while.
Emulators.
Slay the Spire.
YouTube, and forums for questions. Many popular patterns have videos.
I think places like apostrophe patterns are good for beginner patterns because they do fully custom patterns based on your measurements.
For a starter machine, definitely do research, because shitty sewing machines suck to use soooo much and pull any fun out of sewing. People online seem to really like Juki. My girlfriend has a brother, and it definitely feels kinda cheap and has trouble with thick stuff sometimes.
If you’re really into sewing, a serger is totally worth it, A cover stitch is nice to have.
