Unboxing the Janome 1600

Published: Wed, 06/24/20

Hi ,

I’m sharing my first video on the Janome 1600P sewing machine and how to thread it up and start sewing! This spring I became a dealer for Janome machines and despite life (and my house) being crazy, I couldn’t wait to begin playing with these new home sewing machines. See what comes in the box and just how fast this lockstitch machine can sew in this new Machine Monday tutorial:

Janome 1600P Sewing Machine - Unboxing, Threading, and Sewing Tutorial

Click Here to check out the Janome 1600P. This home sewing machine is capable of 1600 stitches per minute. It is a straight stitch machine – no zigzag, no decorative stitches. But as I explained in the video, this makes this machine much better at precision sewing and machine quilting!

Yes, we will be back with more Mini Block Monday tutorials next week. I’m planning to alternate Mini Block Monday with Machine Monday tutorials so we can continue learning precision piecing and geek out on new machines as well.

Mini Block Monday back Next Week

I've been MIA online lately as I declared war on the basement bath and have been laying tile for a solid week straight.

Lesson I learned - don't give a quilter access to multiple sizes of tiles that can (with very careful cutting) be fitted together to fit almost any nook and cranny and crazy space. Because while yes, it is beautiful... THIS TOOK FOREVER!!!

I hope everyone had a very Happy Father's Day this past weekend and I promise I'll have a mini block for you next week!

Let's go quilt,
