and serging.

Simply guide the thread directly from the spool to the needle
area through a single groove and thread the needle by
pressing the threading lever for easy needle threading.

Continue to sew while you fill another bobbin. No need to stop
sewing to refill a bobbin.

No need to pull up the bobbin thread manually. Simply insert
the bobbin, place the thread in the channel and start sewing.

Plenty of room for your biggest projects with 8.25 inches from
the needle to the tower.

Hoop size of over 6” x 10”, multi-hooping capabilities and an
easy snap-on style hoop makes embroidering large projects
simple and straight forward.

machine sews. You are still in complete control over the speed

- just slide the Speed Limiting Lever to the desired speed.

The bobbin loads from the top so it is easy to insert the
bobbin. The clear cover makes it effortless to monitor the
bobbin thread supply.

Provides precise power when sewing multiple layers or dense
fabric.

Perfect for free-motion embroidery, machine embroidery,
monograms and attaching buttons without the need to attach
a darning plate.

There are two heights to the presser foot lifter. The
second height offers a ¼” more clearance which is needed
when placing multiple layers or bulky fabrics under the presser
foot.

This rigid support holds all the mechanisms in perfect
alignment for perfect, skip-free sewing.

A large variety of stitches for clothing construction, decorative
sewing, heirloom sewing and quilting always ensures the
perfect stitch for every project.

Sandwiches fabric between a lower plate and the foot to ensure per­fect buttonholes on multiple layers of fabric. Effectively, this is like a
mini-embroidery hoop in which the machine feeds the attachment
rather than the fabric

. It makes creating buttonholes possible in places

that conventional buttonhole devices cannot easily reach.

Slide the lever on the front of the machine to set the sewing speed
from slow to fast. When the foot pedal is used the lever functions as a
top speed limiter.

Needle position can be changed for individual projects, such as
inserting zippers or cording and topstitching.

By allowing you to use your own computer, this unique innovation
gives you the same capabilities of other embroidery machines at a
fraction of the cost.
