Hello Kitty Sewing Machine
A Great Mini Sewing Machine

It has features not found on many children's sewing machines and many adults choose it for a second machine for simple projects and for its portability.

Janome sewing machines have a long-standing reputation for reliability.

This Janome mini sewing machine, Janome 11706, is adorably cute, as well.

Not really a toy, many adults purchase the Hello Kitty for travel, classes or simple projects at home.

Janome Hello Kitty 11706

Hello Kitty as a First Sewing Machine
or Second for Experienced Sewers

There is another Janome Hello Kitty that is ½ size. That sewing machine, model 11702, is NOT being reviewed in this article. The Janome 11702 sewing machine is more like a toy than the 11706.

Here are some reasons that owners like this Janome sewing machine (model 11706):

• Size - not too big and not too small, the Hello Kitty weighs in at just 12 pounds. It is totally portable and can be easily taken to classes or quilting groups. Many owners use it for smaller projects at home, instead of dragging out their heavier sewing machine.

• Features - This Hello Kitty machine is a real sewing machine, not a toy. As such, it has features like:
  • a built-in 4 step bartack buttonholer
  • 6 built-in stitches
  • reverse stitching
  • a 4-point feed-dog system to keep fabric feeding straight
  • a free-arm design for sewing hard-to-reach areas
  • a handle for moving it easily from room to room
  • a snap-on foot system.

  Pretty nice for a beginner sewing machine or a machine for travel!

• Quiet and smooth - Owners love the smooth, almost noiseless operation on so small and simple a machine.

• Heavy duty construction - Made to last. Since the machine is constructed well, you can travel with it and not be concerned that it will fall apart.

• Built-in light and on/off switch - The blue Hello Kitty (model 11702) does not have these features.

• Instruction book - has clear, step by step instructions. Great for beginners.

• Cute - I don't want to de-emphasize this. Reviewers just love sewing on this machine. Working with a fun design on the machine makes sewing more fun!

As you can see, the Janome Hello Kitty is more than a children's sewing machine or a first sewing machine.

Many experienced sewers choose to get one for craft projects, scrapbooking or for simple projects that don't require their more complicated sewing machines.

If you are considering a gift for a sewer or a sewer-to be, make sure you don't overlook the Janome Hello Kitty 11706.
