Cover Stitch Sewing Machine

What kind of sewing machine should I get?
I have a baby boutique and would like to add; baby bedding, blankets, burp cloths, car seat canopy’s, and nursing covers. I have never used a sewing machine before and no nothing about sewing. What kind of sewing machine is good for beginners, and what kind of stitches do I need to use for such items? Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks in advance!

Actually, everything you’ve mentioned can be made with a straight stitch only machine. Who’s making the patterns for you? Home sewing patterns are not licensed for production like you want — and they’re not made to sew easily either.
