I almost jumped at the Janome HD9 but it wasn't in stock and my local dealer is closed today. A nearby dealer mentioned this machine and I'm pretty excited to try it out!

ah i wanted to hear how the machine sounds but there is music overlay!

Great no-nonsense review. I have been considering this machine for some time. Your review has helped me a great deal.

MANY THANKS FOR THE REVEW, I AM VERY INTERESTING ON THIS MACHINE.😊

This has to be yhe yhird yime watching this video, its such a great instructional video. Im finally going yo aytempt making this bag, the bag looks great, snd i fonally started ealking around with a water bottle 😉 thanks for showing us the steps 🌻🪡🧵

I have owned a jar for over a year & didnt even open it. Now, I feel it absolutely necessary to use on my next product. TY

This machine is the exact copy of the Janome 1600p QC except the colour. I love mine.

It’s definitely not the machine. Perhaps you should try again.

I'm so glad I stumbled on your video! Your overview highlighted several features that I didn't see or understand in the tutorial given to me at the store. I purchased this machine about a year ago and have barely used it, but I've got my first bag project in hand and I'm going to give it a go. I actually made a laptop sleeve a little over a month ago and this machine sewed through two layers of interfaced quilted cotton and an interfaced lining like a champ! I was so impressed. My only complaint is the lack of clearance under the cylinder arm. I wish the base was detachable there to increase clearance to sew around a project. Otherwise, for the few times that I've used it (including hemming jeans) it's been great!

Thank you for such a thorough review! I’m in the market for a new machine and this beauty is on my shortlist. Based on your review and my research I think this machine will be a great fit.

Is it still liked? Has anything broken? Is the cutter still alive? My understanding is that most cutters can't handle industrial threads so you need to cut that thread manually. That seams like an oversight or lack of attention by the brand.

What makes this "semi industrial?" I have a Singer 301 that can sew 1600 spm and is an all METAL machine (no plastic) so don't see where this qualifies as anything but a domestic sewing machine.

Gosh thank you for bringing attention to these shops!! New places to shop.

Love this video on how to make these straps. I have a semi industrial machine and like that this method only has three layers to sew through.

Thank you! Great tutorial. I'll be buying some OdiCoat to protect the fabric I bought for my kitchen chairs. What heat press do you have? What's the material you have on your heat press?

Please teach more classes! You are so clear and easy to follow. ❤

Lot of great information.. thank you very much! What settings did you use for cutting it out on your Cricut?

Ordered the 115% templates. Already made the original size and found it a bit challenging. I’ll also use binding!

I absolutely love this! Thank you for this video.

I was today years old when I found out about this product (literally) and now I've saved your video so I know how to apply it when I get it. Thanks

Are you able to use a regular foot on your sewing machine or did you have to use a teflon coated foot?

Thank you so much for the tutorial! I just want to point out that some people mentioned using a Lazy Susan to turn the press around during the paint spray stage. If you dont have one (or dont want to risk getting paint on it), you can place the press on a piece lf cardstock or another bit of cardboard to be able to rotate it around without touching the press and getting finger prints on it.

Although this is an excellent review like all the others, to flaunt the Elna ef1, which doesn't even offer a functional thread cutter, over the Brother PQ1600 or Juki is weirdly strange given the price gap between the three. Also, there are tons of videos and reviews of users doing happy quilting with Brother. What user experience can you get from Elna ef1 who lacks a functional thread cutter? This is a no go for 99% of users of modern semi-industrial sewing machines. Poor lighting (Juki) can easily be fixed in a thousand ways at almost no cost, but a thread cutter you have or you don't. To even bother to mention lighting as a downside is pure nonsense to me. Singer 201 does a fantastic job for a fraction of the price, why would I need Elna? If you get pleasure from cutting threads by hand, then you are alone. Brother sewing machines are one of the smoothest and finest sewing machines in the industry. If you factor in the selling price they surely get the top spot. Nevertheless, I rate the presentation, the language and the camera angles with 5/5 stars.

I keep my tension at 3 to 3 1/2 and have almost no problems. My thread is 50 wt cone thread when I can find the correct color.

Just received mine!!! Now it's go time!!!! 😊😊😊

Did you make up your design for the appliqué on the front? What kind of machine are you using? I do not have an industrial machine, so I’m curious if this type of fabric and layers can be done on a domestic. I’m hoping you are using a domestic loldo you have a link for the bag Ang light?

That looks super cute, but I am just going to keep mine in the closet. LOL BTW, they are having a great sale right now, July of 2024.

Cool where do I find the templates for the larger size?

I would love 1/8 tape that actually sticks

Are you able to sew nylon, spandex and jersey without any problem?

I'm not a bag maker, just garments and quilts. I don't quite understand what "too much for quilting" is. Nor do I understand what a "refined user experience" is. Quilters like straight stitch only for piecing, and they like speed because chain piecing with petal-to-the-metal is great. It seems that with the large harp, a big quilt could be quilted. Any help with specifics on why this machine is "too much" and not "refined" would be helpful before I commit.

Wish I’d known 10 yard webbing was shows only 😩😊

That's awesome❤

So fun to watch!!!!!

That's so fun!

How does it deal with lightweight slippery fabric, eg silk satin?

Hey cutie-pie, I have a second hand Elna 3003. Do you know what year this machine was brought out? Thank you ;)

Thanks for the video! Was looking for information about this machine and came across your review for quite awhile. It was a really detailed one. May I know if there is dual voltage for this machine and if you could recommend any shops (especially from Arizona) that sell this machine? Thankyou in advance!

Excellent video! Mine needs to be painted too, but I'm too lazy to take it apart anytime soon. Maybe I will just make a padded handle sleeve for now and I need to mount it to something or put something on the bottom to prevent it from damaging surfaces.

I was impatient and put my spring in and cut the zip-ties, before I put the rod in and the bolt that pushes the spring down. 😢 I also over applied the glitter spray in a few spots. Otherwise, my KAM makeover turned out! 😊 This tutorial is the best. Newer KAM presses have a bolt instead of a pin to push the spring down.

You are an excellent instructor and I just purchased this machine. I had the Brother 1500 Novelle for 15 years and wore it out. I love this machine for especially quilt piecing, binding, repairing hubby’s Exercise pants at bulky waistlines. This machine I take to quilt classes and love the speed for it. However I did certainly enjoy your review. Thank you Chris

You poor thing I can't imagine I have a friend he has them monthly I thank the Lord I have never had one! I also have a very high tolerance for pain I delivered all my babies the biggest he was shy of 10 lbs natural because I refused to have a needle in my back then 5th one comes had to have emergency C-section and I argued not to have to epidural to knock my ass out but didn't work 😂 wasn't as bad as I thought

I love watching your videos.. I’m planning a Vegas trip for next year. Will there be another sewcation event in Vegas next year? It would be great if I could schedule my trip for the same timeframe.

I’ve just applied Odicoat according to your instructions and it turned out super patchy! Does it dry down even or have I just ruined this piece of fabric? It is interfaced cotton blend.

Oh my God girl you just gave me nostalgia about Spyro the dragon that’s where I got my KZbin name partially from Spyrorocks346 haha I still got all day games for PlayStation one and on omg all that rainbow quilted vinyl is gorgeous and for one of the names you should just Call it Phoenix Vibe you already named it I’m glad you’re doing better girl and I wish I could go to Texas but I’ll see you again when you come down to Florida sincerely, Gloria❤❤❤

The yellow pink and orange vinyl definitely reminds me of a tequila sunrise!!!

Didn’t the intake nurse ask about your medications or allergies? I work an emergency room. There are many people coming in with flank pain and related symptoms related to Kidney stones. Mostly from energy drinks, and dehydration. I have had kidney stones. I also had to go see a endocrinologist to find out I had an oversized parathyroid gland releasing too much calcium into my blood. Hopefully, you do not have another. I can relate that the experience is horrible.

I love how you have your hair styled! I have been watching your older video. Your KAMSNAP makeover, a few times.

What about ombre shimmer group
