Based on your request for a sewing machine, I would recommend the Empisal 270D Dress Maker. It is currently available for R1299, which is a great price for a full-featured sewing machine for dressmaking and basic garment construction. The 270D has 25 built-in stitches including stretch, decorative, and buttonhole stitches. It's lightweight and easy to use. Another great option is the Brother Domestic Sewing Machine JA1400, available for R2699. The JA1400 has an extra-high presser foot lift and 37 built-in stitches for versatility. Both of these machines would be excellent choices for basic sewing and costume projects. Let me know if you need any other details!
Based on the search results, I would recommend the Empisal Expression 889 Sewing Machine for R2549 or the Empisal Novice Sewing Machine ENSM150 for R2299. Both are affordable entry-level sewing machines from a reputable brand that would be suitable for basic sewing needs. The Expression 889 has 25 built-in stitches and a free arm, while the Novice machine has 23 stitches. They are available from multiple retailers and should serve you well for simple projects as you're just starting out with sewing. Please let me know if you need any other details!
