Thank you for this interesting video. You have explained it very clearly on both machines. I use the memory craft 8200 QCP and the memory craft 9480 QCP, both are 9 mm machines
I love this. This makes more sense than all those expensive rules out there that I can’t figure out how to use, thank you so very much for sharing this.

Good review for me. I love this stitch, it’s magical. Any suggestions for 1.storing the invisible thread 2. Keeping the invisible thread from unrolling while handeling. Thanks.
I am thrilled about this tutorial. I’ve got an M7 but haven’t played around much yet, there’s so much it can do! I’d love to see more tutorials on the M7.
Thank you! I was just trying to do this last month. I have the Janome S6 (US model), and was actually using that stitch but couldn't get it to come out right. Thank you for sharing!
So thankful you shared this!!! I did something similar with a feather stitch with the width set to zero,but your selection and tips looks so much better! Thank you
Nice . I have the M7, but for the past 40 years I have adjusted my bobbin tension without fear an an assortment of machines, so I’m not buying a blue dot bobbin. I hope I get around to trying this after the holidays. I wasn’t impressed with some of the other “hand sewn” stitches on this machine, but these look pretty good.
I am excited to try this out! in fact I am going out the Janome retailer to get a blue bobbin. I have a 3160DQC I have one question. Feed dogs, dropped? or not? Thank you
I have two Janome machines. I didn’t know I could do this. Thank you so much, I will use this technique. I need to learn more about all the different things I can do with these wonderful machines.
Dang! Now I need a Janome machine. Until a few minutes ago I didn't know I needed one! I imagine even the "less sophisticated " machine is expensive. BTW, I'd like an embroidery machine, and a longarm also. Hmmm, guess I better find some space for all this stuff as well! Such fun, being materialistic. Pun intended. Thank you so much for posting this excellent technique.
I have a couple of Janome machines. They are easy to use, there is a machine that only makes this stitch. Something like “shishako”, it’s not a janome, baby lock I think. Treat yourself to a new toy!
Thank you for this demo. Did you get two bobbin holders when you bought your machine? Does the blue dot holder work in both machines? Nice presentation, nice voice, nice accent.
Wonderful video! My Janome Sewist 780DC makes the hand look stitch. Your additional points about the Aurfil monofilament and purple-tipped needles is very helpful. Looking forward to more videos like this! Thank you!
Thanks for the info. I should imagine monofilament would only be useful for things that don't require washing and ironing as I suspect the monofilament would shrivel up under the iron seeing as it's nylon.
I’m very surprised that my rather basic Janome Model (C30) actually has a stitch like the one you used, so I’m excited to try this!! But because it needs nylon monofilament to work, I’d never be able to use it on a quilt- much too scratchy. But for ornamental type items like table toppers or wall hangings or coasters, yes!! Thanks for this tutorial! ~Diana K.
Thankyou for this video! I’ve been wanting to figure out how to adjust my machine so it looks like hand sewing I also have 2 janome machines and love them both
Thank you for the great tips and instruction. Curious about what the stitches on wrong side of the fabric looks like. Do the stitches look similar to those on the top?
How do you know where to place the dots if you don’t have a pattern? I want a finished 4"x8" hrt, so I need to trim to 4 1/2" by 8 1/2" What size rectangles do I start with?
Thanks so much for giving me such a great tip for machine quilting. ( a french living in Germany, who felt in love with Patchwork in Boston 😊) . There are so much videos with long arm or free quilting which are rather intimidating .
