Yes. I had a Singer Sewing machine for years and used it to make all sorts of clothes using stretch fabric. I now have a Viking and have no problems with it either. You do need to change to a needle that is specifically made for stretch/knit fabrics. You would need a ball needle so it will go into the fabric easier.

JoAnn Fabrics does not carry small tables for sewing machines, but Michael's does. You may also want to try IKEA. While the IKEA tables may not be made specifically for sewing machines, you will probably find a more extensive selection of small tables than you would at Michael's.

What is the difference between the current sewing machine and the old sewing machine?
A serger (overlock) sewing machine uses up to four threads and has a special trimming blade. It is designed for one main job: it sews, trims and overcasts the seam at the same time. Its function is specialized, but it can really speed up sewing and gives the finished item a professional look. A serger is a great machine for sewing stretch fabrics. A home sewing machine is designed to do a wider variety of tasks. It will generally have more stitches, plus presser feet and attachments to sew zippers, buttonholes, do machine quilting, etc. There is usually an overlock stitch on a home sewing machine, but you can't sew the seam, overlock and trim all in one pass. Lots of sewers have one (or more!) of each.
