Janome 11542 Sewing Machine

March 1, 2011 by Kat 6 Comments

As a non-sewer, I’m considering buying this Janome 11542 sewing machine (refurbished) from overstock.com.  They have it for a great price (around $60.00) so I thought I’d post and ask if anyone has any experience with this brand or this machine in particular.  I’d love to hear from you if you can help me out.  I want to use the machine to sew on my scrap pages and small sewing projects (like a cricut cover, cricut carrier, etc) so it’s not like I’ll turn into a heavy duty sewing queen anytime soon!

Thanks!

    This is funny. I don’t know the first thing about sewing, I was actually looking for info when I ran into your blog. I guess I’ll stop and see what info your get. And how you liked whatever you decide to purchase.

    As a non-sewer, I bought a sewing machine years ago … I returned it within a week because it made me cranky 🙂

    hi, I bought this machine (a similar one) from overstock.com and I love it! I am a lifetime sewer, and my “real” machine cost over $500 and is very bulky. So i wanted just a little one to use for my cards, and bought this one. and I LOVE it!! it’s very lightweight, and it can sew right through a layer of cardstock and paper… I love it. YAY I’m excited for you to get it! O) PS I was supposed to be on the OWH bunny hop blog but somehow my post didnt’ show up! 🙁 So you can see my blog at ally-minimonkey.blogspot.com
