Stitch Selections

There are 350 built in stitches including 11 different style buttonholes plus 7 alphabet stitches including 9mm capital letters. To be able to select all of these fantastic stitches with ease you can access them all via a high res touch screen which also displays stitch fundamentals such as stitch length and width and also what foot to use.

The Atelier 7 is the highest and newest in the Atelier range, these latest Janome computerised sewing machines are designed to meet every sewing challenge head on. The machine feels absolutely solid, and you can sit down to use it, confident in knowing it will do the job you want to it no questions asked. The atelier sewing machines had a 120mm high and 210mm wide bed area, so not quite as huge as the MC8200 but certainly big enough for larger projects. 

Needing a little help?

Use the touchscreen as a manual, to gain help and advice about the best stitches to use for the sewing application you intend to stitch. In fact, the best stitches for that task are automatically selected. Choose from the on-screen options to learn how to: sew a seam, over-edging, blind hemming and shell tuck, rolled hem, attaching a zip, gathering fabrics, basting, button sewing, tacking, applique, patchwork, or quilting functions are available.

While sewing there are additional benefits. The Superior Feed System (SFS+) has 7 points of contact on the feed dogs to ensure the fabric feed is as accurate as possible and even. The maximum stitch width is 9mm, so the variety you get with decorative stitches in immense, of which you can still alter the length and width to make them the way you want them. Further to all of that there is a whopping 91 needle positions allowing for tighter, more accurate sewing. For larger jobs the Atelier 7 sewing machine also has a knee lifter and extra hand features such as setting the needle in the up or down position for pivoting.
