Default Janome Sew Mini

I have been wanting this guy for quite some time and I was finally able to order it for my birthday this week. I was shipped very promptly from Hancock Fabrics and I *love* it!!! I read Gina K's tutorials as well as the instruction manual before I started and it was as easy as pie. My experience with sewing is very minimal and I still thought it was easy. I can't wait to incorporate stitching into my cards!!

If you're looking for a good machine at a reasonable price, this one is great!

I got mine on sale for $39.99 + 10% off!! If you watch the sales--you can too!!

Good for you! I have that little machine, too, and I like it a lot.

I've sewed for years and have a big Singer in another room, but wanted the Sew Mini just to sew on my cards.

I know you will have fun with it.

PS - I'm just down the road from you in OKC. My granddaughter got married at the Marland Mansion a couple of years ago. You have a beautiful little town!

That's so cool! I've only been to the mansion once--but I hear it's a popular place to get married. I haven't lived here that long, just around a year. My husband works for Conoco and thus, we live here.

We should get together some time to stamp!

Wow! Congrats on your new toy & Happy Birthday!
I've really been thinking about getting one of these. I want to sew on my cards and SB pages so much...but I don't really know how to sew very well...so I'm a little torn. That's a great price...how did you get an additional 10% off? Thanks!

Mine's a piece of garbage and easily one of the top five worst things I've bought in my lifetime.

Good luck with yours. I hope it's not the total lemon that mine is.

One teeeeeensy word of caution....if you decide to put up the hem on your jeans? Don't get all lazy and think the cute little Janome is a good choice. <sigh> It WILL break. <sigh> It really isn't intended for heavy duty sewing.

Mine was, too. :( It worked properly once.
