Vintage Singer 301
I picked this up at a yardsale, recently, as part of a $15.00 package deal:
It's straight-stitch-only, gear-driven and (according to every website I've checked) "a favorite of quilters".
I love the brass accents...
...and the deco number font.
It seems to work, just fine. Now, I need to download a manual for it and make note of how to thread it so that I can use it with some thread other than what is already in it!

Welcome to the club. There's no turning back now.
That is a very nice machine at a great price. As creative as you are, I bet you end up making some cool stuff.
You might have already seen it but here's a video on threading and sewing with the 301.

Or you could ask someone you know that worked with sewing machines for years.
Cool grab!
