Always In Stitches Janome Memory Craft 9450QCP 

Thank you, I have had my 9450 2 years and love it but I have learned so much. You are such a great teacher.

Best video ever on demonstrating the Janome 9450. Thank you so very much.

Excellent tutorial! I just got a Janome 9450 . Thank you so much!!

You presentation was absolutely excellent. Love your style of teaching and you gave me lots of info before I shop for a machine tomorrow. Thanks you!

Excellent tutorial! I've had my 9450 for just over a month and am so happy to have found your video. Things are much clearer now. Thank you so much.

Thank you for the video. I watched it this weekend and purchased my new MC9450 today. So excited to get started!

Best tutorial for the 9450 QCP! I learned a lot from you!

It's good to have you explaining it all and how it all works, thankyou

Had my machine for over a year. Learned so much from you! More than from the book. I had my book copied and spiral bound at Office Depot . Makes it easy to lay flat and make notes instead of writing on original.

I just purchased my 9450 today and found this video very helpful! Thank you for doing this.

Thank you for helping me get started on my first new Janome MC 9450 QCP. Your video got me sewing soon after I got it out the box. Big upgrade from my 30yr old JCPenney. Stitch On!!!

Thank you so much for this video. Excellent and clear demonstration. Very helpful to me as a new owner of this machine in the middle of a pandemic. You are correct about the needle threader!

I’ve had my machine for a couple years and have learned so much. Thank you for your thoroughness!

I just got this machine today. I’ve been watching videos and this one is the best I’ve seen. Easy to follow instructions. Thank you

Great video! Thank you so much. I have been using my new Janome Memory Craft since April and love it. I really learned a lot from your video. I really appreciate all the great tips. Thank you!

I don’t even have a Janome and I learned so much from this video. Very instructional, thank you.

Great video and instructions. Still getting used to my 9450 and I learned so much from this today. Will be saving as a reference video. Thanks so much!

I have this machine and live it!! I am one of those hands in learners, but definitely read the manual. I havent had much time to sew in it, yet am glad for this refresher.

Thank you 🙏🏻 I have Janome 808 more than 15 years ago. I like it so much

This is the best instruction I have been given for my machine. Thank you for sharing this info on you tube. You have so many great videos that you share so keep up the great work.

Fantastic Video!!! I learned more in an hour with you than any other video.

I just purchased my machine and your video has been sooo much help!😊

Thank you so much for this video. I recently bought the Janome atelier 7, very similar to this memory craft. I have learned so much from your run through. Great tips too.

Hi. I love my machine. I use the thread cutter on my desk top and push it with my the side of my hand. It’s a little faster and needs no searching for the button. I also like the clear plastic guide. Beginng students need help sewing straight for a long time, this just offers another option during their training. The machine is a magic monster. The internet is fantastic for seeing all the features on different brand machine, then for learning how to use the one you purchase. It’s also a good sourse for printing off misplaced/lost manuals. Some manufacturers have better demos because of their dealers output. I hope sewing gets a new life, a boost, ‘cause these machines are just great fun and do so much. But the payoff for price savings isn’t there like it use to be. ( i’m 75 and sewn since I was 10). So, sew for the joy of it and the pleasure of gifting a personalized item. Thanks for a well presented demo.

I have this machine and you pointed out some things I forgot about. Very helpful. Thank you.

Wonderful, amazing video! Purchasing this machine in the next few days and you have inspired me. Thank you for all the information. Keep up the good videos as I will be checking in when I need too.❤️

This is the best video to learn a machine that I have ever seen! Thanks So Much. This machine is in my near future. As soon as they are available. It is also the best video I’ve seen to help me with my current machine. Wow!

Thank you, thank you, thank you!! You helped me out greatly. Just bought my machine a few weeks ago and had some questions that you helped with!

Great video! Thank you for doing this tutorial .. you taught me a lot about my 9450 today .. Thank you

Thank you for the clear instructions. I am so benefitted by your video. I just bought Janome 9850... EXCITED !!!! Pls post more & more.

Great video! I am a long time Janome owner and these tips were helpful to me. Love seeing what’s new and what I might like to get in future.

Oh my goodness! What a wonderful demo! I am reluctant to give rave reviews of instructional videos but this one is the best I have ever seen. I bought my Janome 9400 several years ago but have never understood some of the basics of it not to mention more complicated features. Your explanations are clear, concise, and make so much sense. Thank you! I too remember the days of knee pressure stop and go as well as moving the wheel to put the needle up and down. Purchasing this machine was a huge leap from the basic models I have used all my life and I really appreciate what I have learned in your demo. Thank you again!

Your video is so helpful! I bought my machine just before COVID hit and had to self teach. I learned so much from you and this video. Thank you so much for sharing your expertise and providing clear guidance in a straightforward, relatable way. You’re a great teacher! Many thanks!!!

Awesome presentation demo of this machine! I am a subscriber now for sure! I appreciate your tips and suggestions as well.

Wonderful video. I have just bought a sister machine to this model and I have learned so much. Many thanks.

Thank you this was the most valuable video. I had problems with both winding the bobbin and threading the machine. Yes, you are so right. 20 times is a lot, but necessary. This was most helpful, thank you.

Thank you for making this awesome video. Excellent instructions.

Great and clear presentation. You are an awesome teacher, love your style. I’m in the process of deciding which sewing machine to buy. Thank you again for this very helpful video on the Janome 9450QC.

I just bought this machine last weekend and finally got everything out of the box and put it together. Watched this video and it was SO HELPFUL! Yes I have read the instruction video but I am a visual learner and this was perfect. Thank you SO MUCH!

This sewing machine is wonderful! I’ve had it for almost a year now and made 15 quilts. It compensates for my beginner level ability. Your channel helped me get started.

Beautiful machine, thanks for sharing 👍❤️😊

I currently have a Juki DX7. I love this sewing machine. But I've been kind of curious about the Janome. One day about six months ago I saw an old Janome for sale on Ebay. It's from the 90's and it was only $130. There was something about the way that Memory Craft 3000 looked. It was very feminine looking and pretty to me. I couldn't stop thinking about the sewing machine and finally broke down and bought it. Once I received it, I tried sewing using all the buttons and everything worked great. It was clear the previous owner took very good care of her. Then I put it on a shelf for months. Then one day I was going to start a quilt and decided I'd put this old Janome to work. Long story short, I LOVE this Janome! More than my Juki DX7! Who would have thought?! I love the way she looks, the way she sounds especially, and the way she sews. I will NEVER get rid of this sewing machine!!! I now have a Juki, a Bernina, and a Janome. The Janome is my favorite and cost me the least amount of money!

Thank you, I just put a down payment on one of these. I can’t wait to pay with mine while watching this video again.

Excellent instructional video. Thank you!

Incredible video. Thank you. I aspire to get this machine!

I recently upgraded my 8200 to the 9450 and could not figure how to get from utility to and through the other stitches. Your video is amazing and your clarity is easy to follow and duplicate as I (stop video) do what you just did. Surprise! It works! Thank you.

Thank you! I am still shopping but that was supper helpful! Wish I was closer.

I have not been able to take the classes, but this video is excellent, thank you so much. I bought a Baby Lock Soprano, then later bought the 9450. I'm sorry I bought the Soprano, and am trying to sell it (works great, but I like the 9450 so much better, and need the space in my sewing room).

Excellent video! Thank you!

Great tutorial! I just bought this machine!

Thank you so much. Awesome video!

Thank you so much for these virtual classes. I live in Australia where we can still move around freely, but love that I can learn from the comfort of my home. I have watched both videos on the MC9450 and the 6700P. Just need to decide which one to get as my trusty Bernina is on its’ last legs and I need a replacement, and the Janome seems a great choice, especially the price. If I could purchase from you I would! Thanks again, and keep safe.

What a great video!! Nice job 👍🏻

Thank you so much, saved me a lot of time today =)

Thank you.

I have thus machine . It’s a beauty . I mainly dress make and do tailoring . It’s great fir this purpose . One of the stitches I often use is the triple stitch for top stitching around pockets etc . I have been pondering if there is a way of turning corners with precision when using triple stitch ?

Thanks!!!!!!

Stitch composure doesn’t work with Macs. Ah well. I just bought this machine and looking for training. I wish we could see when you are navigating the buttons on the screen. But thank you for the feet training. I will keep searching for the options and how to navigate.

Loved this video. Could you also do one for the Janome HD9. Threading and needle threader please.

Hi, I have had my machine for 2 years now, & I still learnt a bit from your video. But there were a couple of things you got wrong. Firstly in the screen, you kept using the arrows to get back to the Utility screen, when you can just touch the icon next to the B. The icon shows straight & zigzag & it goes straight back to Utility screen 1. Or you can just touch any of the icons in the row to get to the desired area. This is so much quicker than going through the arrows. Second the 3 icons at the top of the screen just above the letter B - the middle one is twin needle. The first one is the presser foot up whenever you stop sewing, like in appliqué going round shapes, or pivoting around corners. The third icon is not for raising & lowering the feed dogs, it is for when you use the walking foot, it engages the the upper & lower feed dogs to work in unison. This is especially important when quilting through 3-4 layers. I hope this helps.

Amazing video. I learned so much

Hoping to order this machine tomorrow....this video will be an AMAZING help bc of the Covid lockdown here in Ontario Canada

Very good thanks

What all machines need to have is more space between the bobbin and the needle holder. As I got older I find it hard to change my needle. Not enough height to give more space for my hand.

Does this come with a separate spool holder for larger cones and a blue bobbin for FMQ?

how do I order the workbook for this machine? can you let me know? Thank you. I love your video is really informative. I have watched it several times and I always learn something new. Thank you for you time Carmen

I just bought this machine a couple weeks ago. I'm a quilter and have always used a straight stitch only machine. I have other machines that are "loaded" like this one but don't use them as often. We recently moved cross country from AZ back to our home state of PA so we had a moving company move our things. My machines were well packed and labeled but they piled heavy boxes of books on top of my machines. My favorite straight stitch machine that I had for 12 years was damaged. Long story short...I traded it for this machine and I'm learning how to use the "walking" feet and when to use them. I've been told by other quilters that have this machine that they just leave their walking foot on all the time. I tried that and it felt awkward to try to sew a 1/4". Do you have to change any other settings when you put the walking foot on? What is the narrow walking foot for? The only thing that I think your video should have gone into is more instructions on the screen settings. You forgot to show the light :)

Hi from France :) Thanks for this video and your great tips ! I have this wonderful machine since one year and I'm very happy with it ! I just want you to pay attention when you show how to wind the bobin, you put the spool of thread in a wrong way. The thread is on the top of the spool on your video and it SHOULD BE under. I don't know if I'm clear as english is not my language but I think it's important to notice it ;) And for the threader (I had issues many times), it's impossible to find the Janome needles in France :(

The needle threader cannot be seen in person more on screen. I will try some more. This machine has so much light, I may never need it!

Is the 9450 as robust as the 6700? Is it as good for bag making as the 6700? I'm considering the 6700 for bag making, but would like a free arm (as I also sew garments), so if the 9450 is great for bag making also, I might be tempted to get the 9450 even if it's more expensive.

Hi...your video is very informative.i have Janome9400QCP...can u please elaborate on how to import designs using stitch composer and use USB.i am facing problem in of converting into jef files.

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.

How difficult is it to use the alpha numeric function? I have a Memorycraft 8000 and I love the simple to use, and programme, sentences and numbers before sewing. Sadly my machine has developed a terminal fault and needs replacing but I haven't found a machine that does lettering so easily. Are you able to demonstrate this function please?

It looks to me that the machine is being threaded with the thread coming off the top of the spool of thread. The 9450 manual shows threading with the thread coming from under the spool. And for me to use aurifil and threading the 9450 like the manual shows, the smaller end of the spool goes on first pointing to the right and the thread cap goes on the bigger end to hold the spool on. I’m confused by this video! I assume the manual is right!

with the walking foot: don t you need to push the third button on the right (with the symbol) to engage it?

How do I make the presser foot stay down when chainpiecing.

Thank you so much for this video. I simply adore my 9450. I am just hobby crafter learned all from youtube and I would love to have your tutirial book. Is it possible to order it to Europe.

do you have a video on the mc 8200?

Do you have a workbook for the skyline S9

Blue tip needle or red for sewing, from Maine

Saludos, me gustaría saber si el manual de instrucciones vienen en español? Estoy considerando seriamente comprarme una máquina de esta. Gracias por su pronta respuesta.

Hi Capi, I just bought this same machine. Im having trouble sewing with knits. Can you provide a tutorial on this?

How much is the machine? Do you sell this machine?

Extremely helpful, thank you. I hope you don’t mind but I disagree at 48.16 about fabric thickness and generous vs scant 1/4 inch seams. I think you said it the wrong way round,

Hi Capi, can you address sewing with knits on this machine?

Where did you get your sewing box? Did it come with the sewing machine or is it a container I could buy?

Icon with 3 triangles and 2 lines is for Flex feed system…. NOT feed dogs

I hate my machine I finally got to bring it out to work and the foot control does not work. I am so upset. I worked for a minute and then I used the foot thread cutter foot and then the foot control did not work. I unplugged every thing rethreaded it and tried again. Same thing I sewed for two inches used the foot thread cutter and then the foot control would not work. Obviously this is not working for me, I am frustrated the machine is unreliable and packed it up to return it in the morning, and my husband just spent two days cutting out a new whole and rearranging the electric controls on it so accommodate this machine.
