The Janome 5060QDC

[@SharontheCat]

I have spent over an hour watching videos of this machine, and this is by far the best. There is no music and good close-ups of the controls. The only thing I could wish for is close-ups of the attachments. Thank you.

I bought this as a back up for my Juki Dx3 and I seem to be using this machine more at the moment. I love its simplicity, sturdiness, and the sewing reel and scissor patterns on it! It's speedy, which I like and a real deal with the auto thread cutter. It's quite compact, but spacious, which I also like as I have a very small work area. The needle threader is a little fiddly to begin with, but only if you've been used to one of the quick, quick auto threaders! I'd really recommend this for anyone who's starting out sewing because there's plenty of room to grow. Another good video, thanks!!!

Thanks for this... it been a long time since I've been on the sewing machine, I can remember always messing up every sewing machine I would buy but as I am older I suppose I'm a little more careful now.. I wanted to buy a sewing machine which wasn't too expensive but no matter where I look this machine's price is the same £399 but looking at what it gives I suppose its really good compared to others. Have you done any embroidery with this machine and if so do you have to use a different thread for embroidery?

[@vivlee3840]

@@MsWatchdog By embroidery, you mean the decorative stitches? Yes, I have used them and used either a normal thread or embroidery thread, using the same thread in the bobbin.

I love this machine. Had it nearly a year and it has dealt with everything I sew. Use it everyday.

[@jacquelinetaylor6027]

My Janome just arrived and this video has been really helpful

[@TheMoondustAngel]

Hi Jacqueline, What are your thoughts on it? Is your machine quite loud ? I like the look of this machine but reviews say it's a little noisy.

[@paulinewoodcock3258]

I have just bought one of the machines you have been demonstrating. Would it be possible for you to show how to use the quilting accessories.

[@clareb2011]

brilliant helpful video! thank you. Am hoping to buy this machine soon!

[@daviessuzanne4594]

Fabulous video, really useful, thank you, so informative.

[@phmiguet]

Well presented! Good video. Thanks!

[@pattyterry9703]

Excellent video. Thank you for making it :)!

Is there a reply to 'Jen N's question about stitches 6,7 25, 26, 27 & 28 having letters next to them (nothing to do with which foot you use) ???

[@zirco9808]

Thank you for the demo. What is the motor power in watts pls? It should be indicated on the machine label.

[@vivienlee610]

HOW DO YOU DISABLE THE BEEP SOUND PLEASE???

[@Lilyflowers659]

Can you turn the beeps off?

[@Jenn..N]

Hi. Just upgraded from a manual to this machine. Thanks for the demo as it's very useful. Please can you tell me what on earth M R and P stand for in the stitches Icons. ie 6 has M and 7 has R and 25-29 have P M and R but I can't see anything in the instruction book on what it stands for!! Thank you.

[@alexandraschwartz355]

Hey there, I believe the letters indicate the foot that you should use for that particular stitch. She explains it around 8:10 minutes of the video! And the letters of the foot can be found on the foot I think :)

[@angiebabesdarboe3944]

The letters represent the foot to use

[@Jenn..N]

Thanks for the replies but the foot to use appears on the digital display. The letters I'm asking about are on the stitch chart on the body of the machine that only appear with stitches 6&7, 25, 26, 27, 28 & 29. The letters are P, M & R. The foot to use that appears on the digital display does not show P, M or R for these stitches.

[@eilishharman6086]

Can you please tell me what stitches work with Walking foot?

[@roevans2609]

Just bought this particular machine, thankyou for the basic tutorial. There is no information about the guide measure on needle plate, this would be helpful, also a much closer filming please.

[@shanksre6186]

Thank you.

[@kimrodriguez1698]

Is this model available in the United States? It’s my favorite of all the Janome QDCs. Thank you😊.

[@anjanipatel3497]

I was wondering the same thing... but in Europe! Hate to piggy back but have had this similar question :) Thank you!

[@stephenburton9766]

Having filled my bobbin with new thread, I cannot lift it off. Can you help me find a solution?

[@lizcharles8475]

Hi, i've just ordered the Janome 5060QDC. Will be arriving in a few days. I hope I've made a good choice. How old is this machine please?

[@handyjim]

what would you recomend for absolute begginer

[@islasmith5635]

Although it’s mostly suited for quilting would it be a good machine for dress making also?

[@annmarie3831]

Yes

[@israal-hakim5691]

Can I use different accessories feet on this machine? Seeing that it comes preprogrammed with type of foot to use

[@veroaudet3142]

Hello, I just bought this sewing machine, coming from UK. I'm living in France and would have the instruction book in french. Do you know if it exist anyway? I don't find the 5060 QDC in France; ever on the french janome website...thanks a lot and thanks for this perfect video.

[@anjanipatel3497]

Bonjour Vero, I have a question for you: Can you use this machine in France? With the French plug? Perhaps a stupid question but I am in France as well and was looking at this machine but cannot buy it anywhere here... Thank you in advance. :)

[@veroaudet3142]

@@anjanipatel3497 yes you can use a french plug.

[@veroaudet3142]

I bought this machine on the UK Amazon site

[@anjanipatel3497]

@@veroaudet3142 oh my! I thought the UK and French plugs are different, at least that’s what my research told me… do you use an adapter? Wow I’m learning so much. :) thank you for the reply!

[@MsWatchdog]

Do you have to use a different thread for embroidery for this machine? What is the thickest fabric that this machine can take?

[@pamclarke6785]

How much does this machine cost please?

[@franknuttsewingmachines7941]

Hi, this machine is priced at £549 🙂

[@pamclarke6785]

Thank you.

[@carollaird2240]

Is the 5060,qdc high or low shank please

[@vivienlee610]

Low... Which you'll know by now!

[@Jenn..N]

Very helpful video but if you are not going to reply to questions you should turn off the comments to save people the bother.

Please could you let me know the throat size?
