  • Extra-Large Sewing Space
    Long Arm Design plus an extra-large Extension Table provide you with 25” of sewing space
  • Programmable Needle Up / Down
    The needle can be programmed to stop in the highest up position, making it easier to remove fabric from the machine. The needle can be programmed to stop in the down position which is ideal for pivoting.

  • Extension Table Included
    The extra-large extension table measures 22” in length by 14” in width. The convenient ruler allows you to make quick measurements up to 16”.

    With lights on each side of the needle area as well as one light over the large surface to the right of the needle, it is easier to see your work. The long-lasting bulbs (100,000 hours) stay cool regardless of how long the machine is being operated.
  • Electronic Auto Pilot
    Unplug the foot control, press the Start button and the machine sews. You are still in complete control over the speed - just slide the Speed Control Lever to the desired maximum speed.

  • 7mm Stitch Width
    Most stitches can be set for a maximum width of 7mm creating attractive satin and decorative stitches.

    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.

    Automatic bobbin thread pick-up for quicker threading. The clear cover makes it easy to see the bobbin supply.
  • Presser Foot Sensor
    Ensures the presser foot is in the proper position for an easy start. The machine will not begin to sew if the presser foot is raised, reducing the chance of thread bunching.
  • LCD Screen with Stitch Selection Dial
    Provides clear and easy viewing of stitch settings including the number of the selected stitch, an image of the selected stitch, and stitch width and stitch length settings
  • Independent Bobbin Winding System
    Continue to sew while filling a bobbin! Simply follow the numbered diagram printed on the top of sewing machine and your bobbin is filled while you finish sewing!

  • Adjustable Thread Tension
    Ensures stable stitch quality regardless of fabric type. Simply press the Tension Buttons located on the front of the machine for optimal results
  • 7-Segment Feeding System with Box Feed
    The 7-Segment Feeding System ensures that the fabric is picked up and supported from the front of the presser foot to the rear, providing accurate feeding of the fabric. The Box Feed function moves the feed dogs in a box motion, rather than the historic arc motion. Box motion assures perfect feeding throughout the entire feed process, as the feed dogs are always in perfect and equal contact with the fabric and presser foot.

    9 Essential Stitches, 6 Stretch Stitches, 17 Quilting Stitches, 176 Decorative Stitches, 6 Buttonholes
