All About Decorative Stitches on your Janome Sewing Machine with Alba

[@terisparkman9814]

Great instruction for using decorative stitches. This opens up lots of opportunities to get creative. Thank you so much.

[@kathykerr7745]

You are the most clear teacher I have ever followed!

[@linepaquet931]

Thank you Alba. Your explanations are clear. As I do not speak English fluently I appreciated that you did not speak too fast so I could understand all your explanations perfectly.

[@pambain9415]

Please make more videos like this one.

[@JanomeJAI]

Thank you for your feedback Pam! We plan on doing many more!

[@beverleymay4474]

Thank you - finally found a video that explains what I need that is easy to understand.

[@bonnieleebragliatatford296]

You are incredibly precise as a teacher and with verbal skills! Were you ever a teacher?! Who taught students? Keep up the excellent videos!

[@pakelekia2552]

Thank you so much! I have a new Janome coming soon, and I never would have thought of doing any of this. Great video. You make everything about sewing sound so appealing.

[@thisbasicstitch]

I love Alba's teaching technique!

[@JanomeJAI]

Alba is a wonderful educator and we are very pleased to have her in the Janome family!

[@FANIsewbiz]

How clear is your speech…. I am Greek, and is not so easy to understand everything… I really enjoy this video… Thank you for sharing all that.. I would like very much to see another with double needle…❤️🌺

[@helenveenstra8661]

Thank you for your explanation and clear voice talking about decorative stitches. Much greetings from Holand.

[@jcfromupstate1693]

Thank you for this video. Right in the middle, I paused it and grabbed some ribbon, some stabilizer, and some 40 wt Sulky gold thread. Wow, I love how it turned out. This will be fabulous for the holidays. I admit, you scared me a bit with the "avoiding the tension disc in the bobbin" but it turned out great! Thanks again! (I'm a fairly new owner of the Skyline 7 - I love it!)

[@kathrynaltergott4039]

I have never tried stitch stacking. I am a new Janome user so this is new and exciting for mr. I quilt mostly but starting to sew some bags and will try some of it on them. I do use decorative stitching to sew down my quilt binding.

[@georgycolson9671]

Thank you! Best video for decorative stitches!

[@JanomeJAI]

Glad it was helpful!

[@lynnbrownlow3704]

Thank you Alba! What a great little lesson on stitches. I've had two Janome machines for 20ish years and never had the time to really experiment with the beautiful stitches. Now I do and I will!!

[@bosankatuzlanka5211]

Hello Alba from Australia! I’m happy to subscribe to your channel……

[@gretroman8235]

Very interesting video on using stitches already on machine in a new way. I really liked the look of stitches on ribbon but all of the video was great. Good speed and content to get me thinking.

[@veronicawilliams6809]

This made my day. Wish there was more with Accuedit for the 15000. Janome is a tuff machine! 😎

[@begonial6151]

Love this . Not sure why I didn’t experiment with ribbon before . Thanks .

[@sherryseitz1889]

Very interesting. I enjoyed your demonstration very much. Thank you,

[@PsychicKathleen]

Thank you for this amazing and inspirational video Alba! I second Pam - would LOVE to see more!

[@PatPomroy]

I really enjoyed your presentation. Thank you!

[@kathleenk7726]

Still waiting for my machine to come in, but can't wait to try this!! Thanks, you're a great teacher.

[@brendaeves3236]

Great video for a new Janome atelier 7 owner such as myself.

[@jennystrahley927]

Great information on decorative stitches! I really appreciate the tip to push the lock button to finish the decorative stitch before machine actually locks the stitching! I have a Janome QDC4300 that I mainly use for piecing quilt tops--love it. I want to make a sample of each of my stitches so I can actually see them on fabric, maybe that will inspire me to use them more. Thanks again for the information.

[@Pam-wy7wn]

Alba, as always, your instructions are filled with so many tips that aren’t in the manuals. Thank you so much!

[@cherylp.3347]

Thanks! Great tips. We all have embroidery stitches on machines ( I think I have the same Janome) but don’t know how or where to use them. You’ve gotten me excited to try some of these. 😀

[@JanomeJAI]

Hello Cheryl! Thank you so much for your feedback! We are hoping to see what you are making soon! Please share on all of our social media!

[@debjacobson9800]

You are the best Alba♥

[@nurunnisafuad185]

Please make more videos on embroidery for beginners . Thank you .

[@carolynwalsh4136]

Thank you Alba. I have a new S7 and am struggling with getting the decorative stitches to look even. Sounds like stabilizer is my best friend. I will give it a try.

[@veronicawilliams6809]

Alba I love you and hope you are doing well. Missed you from hoop fest.

[@BrianHansson-hu2yb]

Hi, could you please use a stronger constrasting coloured thread when demonstrating as the lighter threads are too hard for me to see clearly. I really enjoy your lessons. I've had my MC 9000 since 1997. Rosemary

Thank you Melanie!

[@anigabriel103]

Thank you Alba. I love your teaching techniques, the explanations was clear but I have an issue, the machine you used for practical is not same with mine. Please can you put me through on janome memory craft 6000.

[@sienna4370]

I bought the Janome 1050 dc with zero knowledge on sewing machines. I originally purchased it to create active wear so all my fabrics I’ve tried to sew with my machine are stretchy, I also bought stretch thread to use and a stretchy jersey knit needle.. I can’t seem to figure out why the stitching doesn’t come out right at all could it be the fabric or the thread I’m using? Should I try embroidery thread on my stretchy fabrics? It looked like from this video she didn’t move the fabric around at all? I was wondering if I was moving my fabric down too quickly or have to go over it a few times? I’m so lost. I wonder if this was the right purchase for the projects I had in mind :( I finally got the super basic stitching to look okay but even then the other side looks different and a bit more “lose” my tension is at a 4 and that alone helped a lot but stitching looks nothing like it should someone please help

[@Lefty10is]

Nice video what stitch was used last, the bobbin thread, and you sewed on the wrong side? Camera work was a bit blurry hard to make some of it out. Didn’t know you could use it old school and pull the bobbin thread up yourself thank you.

[@JanomeJAI]

Linda, the last stitch shown is one of the Heirloom decorative stitches, and is stitch 01 in this category on the Memory Craft 14000 machine that is used by our Educator in this live video. I hope that helps, and Happy Sewing!

[@patriciahomer5342]

I would like to make window shades. I would rather they look the same on the back. Would it work to use wash away stabilizer?

[@JanomeJAI]

We recommend testing the stabilizer to see if this works with your fabric, but that sounds like it may be a solution. Happy Sewing!

[@kathrynaltergott4039]

Hello from Phoenix AZ

[@cherylrodriguez1957]

In doing decorative stitches waht brand of thread do you use. Or is there a certain brand name to use.

At 18:37 the video stops and hasn’t restarted I’m just getting the circle.

monograms on fabric with the Janome?

[@isaemann8638]

Hi Alba, I have a 3160 QDC Janome sewing machine. Could you please teach me how to the serpentine stitch on a quilt. I would like the stitch to be longer and wider than the default. Thank you.

[@ALPS707]

Alba? I want to do decorative topstitching on my bindings from the front. I'm thinking I need to use the AccuFeed foot. What stitches do you suggest? Is it even possible? I have the 9450 (new to me).

[@regenacarlevaro6797]

Hello Ann! You sure can use your AcuFeed feet with decorative stitches. We recommend that you always do a test first and use the stitches that travel forward, avoiding the stitches that the machine has to feed backwards, as you won't have as much success with the finished stitch. Have fun and enjoy!!

[@kimwood5239]

Thank you for this video. I just got the Janome M7 I was making decorative stitches really good all of a sudden they are awful one half is into the design. Do you know how to fix ?

[@patriciakalisak4300]

Excellent content. Thank you

[@migdiol27]

Gracias Sra. Alba me gustaría preguntar sobre mi máquina memory craft 6650 la compré en Amazon y me llegó hace 2 días. Pero sólo trajo unos prensatelas bien básicos. Me interesa comprar el de acolchado, el de fruncido el vástago de la rodilla. En la página web no los veo. Mil gracias por la ayuda que me pueda brindar

[@acebaker3623]

What type of stabilizer do you use? I didn't see anything about needles? I would love to see more on these techniques. It would be very helpful if you could zoom in with the camera more. It is difficult to see exactly what is happening. Thanks!

Hello Ace, Thank you for your feedback on this video. Your input will help us to continue to create better content!

[@Woodsie.]

What size needle do you use?

[@deborahhunke5451]

I have the MC 14000 - running on v. 1.02, I like it but can not find any info on it, example: should the software on both the PC and the machine be treated like the MC 12000 or the MC 15000 v.1 (or 2) Also can I do the update and use the Horizon Link for my PC. Please help.

[@DonnaRehrig]

Which Janome machines have the serpentine stitch ? I have the Mod-50 and don't see it. thanks

[@JanomeJAI]

The MOD-50 machine has 50 stitches shown on the front of the machine and listed individually in your manual. This machine does not have a serpentine stitch. Stitch #16 may look like one, but it is made to attach elastic.

[@HobbyQuilter]

Excellent!

[@AamnaIdrisi]

Is there chain stitch in jenome ?

[@ceceliarowlands-jacobs5957]

Hi Alba, I have the Janome Decor Excel II 5024. I am using my machine right now and it suddenly stopped stitching. It makes one stitch and then gets stuck. What am I doing wrong? Are you able to advise please?. Many thanks, Cecelia (UK)

[@amym8784]

That sounds like it needs a good cleaning and adjustment by your Janome certified technician.

Hi I have an old 5700 do you have any videos on this machine?

Elisabeth, unfortunately we do not have KZbin videos specific to the 5700 on our channel. There may be general videos by authorized dealers using this machine, we recommend a general KZbin search.

The stitch info was good but the lighting washed out everything on the left of the screen, which made it very hard for me to see.

I have a Janome New Home Memorycraft 8000CE which I've been told can not be repaired. I love it so much that I would like to know if there is anyone able to repair it? It keeps stopping sewing. I have run the diagnostic check found on KZbin but that hasn't made any difference.... You are my last hope. Thank-you.

Hello Diana, which Janome sewing machine do you have? We can help you further if we know which model you are using. Thank you!

[@carolineprijs-wijnen4487]

Very interesting

[@cherylh8355]

Sadly not many of the machines have 9mm width stitching ability. Only a few of the most expensive. These examples look so great but then only for the few who have those machines. It'll still work on 7mm just not so effective!
