See your nearest store to experience this top-of-the-line machine is person. Its amazing features include:

 

New Embroidery Unit
The new embroidery unit reduces noise and vibrations and provides an industry-leading embroidery size of 460x450mm. Plus explore a variety of new and improved techniques to elevate your embroidery like never before.

 

Free-Arm Embroidery
Embroider difficult-to-hoop projects without opening a seam. Simply slip part of your project around the free-arm when attaching the optional free-arm hoop.

 

Reversible Hoop Embroidery
The first in the industry to seamlessly embroider a specialty technique like felting or bobbin work, then continue stitching over that design with conventional embroidery. With the reversible hoop you don’t need to un-hoop your project, saving you time and frustration.

 

Embroidery Projection
Project the image of an embroidery on your hooped fabric for easy placement. See where your embroidery is to generally place a design on your project, or easily match multiple hoopings to create embroideries at the ideal size. You can use the precise positioning feature to fine-tune for absolutely perfect placement.

 

Sewing Projection
Stitch projection enables you to easily preview whatever you plan to stitch on the fabric. Or you can easily align your stitching with an overlay of helpful lines with adjustable angles and grids of adjustable sizes in sewing mode. Achieve perfectly placed stitching while saving precious time.

 

Artificial Intelligence Technology
Attach any included presser foot and the machine will inform you if the foot is compatible with your stitch selection. It will show you if the foot is attached incorrectly to make sure you are using the best foot in the best way for your projects.

 

STITCH CREATOR™
Create a 9mm stitch completely from scratch so you always have the right stitch for your project, or edit one of the many built-in stitches to customize a stitch for unlimited creativity.

 

Guided Pictogram Stitch Technique
Use the new patent pending stitch technique, Guided Pictogram, to easily make large motifs while the machine guides you every step of the way. Simply sew until the machine automatically stops and then let the projected guide show you where and when to pivot your fabric until you are done.

 

mySewnet™ Connectivity
Get creative with seamless cloud-based navigation between your machine screen, laptop and mobile. 

Access thousands of beautiful ready-made embroidery designs on mySewnet Library plus a live feed of new, free projects, designs and more via mySewnet Blog. Download the free app that connects your phone to your machine. Digitize photos on the go, get live machine updates and more. Access the cloud folder with free 100MB storage for all files saved in one place directly from your machine screen.

 

Integrated Dual Feed Technology
Feeds fabric from both the top and bottom for effortlessly sewing multiple layers of fabric or specialty fabrics, eliminating the need for a separate dual feed presser foot.

 

Specialty Embroidery Attachment Capabilities
Embroider ribbon, beads or yarn directly and precisely on fabric as the attachment guides the material into place. Automatically stitch a variety of materials with our machine to avoid the time and stress of stitching them down by hand.

 

Hoop Scanning
Load a picture of your hoop to quickly place a design on any project. Simply let the machine scan your hoop and it will load a picture of your hooped project on screen for you to preview design placement and even help you decide what colors to choose.

 

Most Built-In Specialty Technique Designs
