Janome 13512 Hello Kitty Sewing Machine Review

Here is another Janome Hello Kitty sewing machine with the model number 13512 and it is also made for beginners. You can select between this one or the Janome 11706 sewing machine.

What is your favorite color, or I should have asked what is your little girl’s favorite color? Do you think your baby girl would like the red or the green one? The red Hello Kitty sewing machine does have a little more features than the green one, but the price might also have a little difference.

To be honest, I like all the Hello Kitty sewing machines made by Janome. I don’t think I can just pick one design. They are just too cute to decide which one. Most likely, I would have to go with the features, if I am planning to buy one of these machines.
