  Specially designed stitches that add strength and flexibility to seams, especially useful when sewing on knitwear. Some of the stretch stitches can also be used for decorative embellishment.
  
  Hand-Look Quilt Stitch
  This stitch is designed to look like hand sewing for topstitching or quilting. The Hand-Look Quilt Stitch is especially valuable to quilters, crafters and heirloom seamstresses.
  
  Adjustable Stitch Length

  Adjustable Stitch Width
  Optimal settings for width are automatically adjusted when choosing a stitch. They can be overridden to personalize width choice.
  
  Center Zigzag Taper
  When tapering with the zigzag stitch, the stitch tapers to the center, not the left or right. This provides a more attractive look when tapering into or out of a point.
  
  Automatic Tacking Stitch Function
  Tie-off decorative stitches with just a push of a button. With 4 tiny tacking stitches the start and end of the pattern is reinforced. This ensures quality stitching and avoids raveling.

At the end press the reverse button again and the machine will sew 4 stitches in reverse and then 4 stitches forward and then stop. The Automatic Tie-Off Function reinforces the start and end of seams for stronger stitching.
  
  Automatic Reverse
  Push the conveniently located Automatic Reverse Button to sew in reverse and reinforce the stitch.
  
  7mm Stitch Width
  Most stitches can be set for a maximum width of 6mm. When sewing decorative stitches or satin stitches, the wide stitches are bolder and more pronounced.
  
  One-Step Automatic Precisely Balanced Built-In Buttonholes
  Choose from 6 different one step buttonhole styles. Buttonhole sewing is a one step simple process, providing reliable results. Each side of the buttonhole is sewn in the same direction, creating beautifully balanced buttonholes.

  Electronic Twin Needle Control
  Stitches are automatically adjusted for twin needle sewing with just the touch of a button. Twin needle sewing creates two parallel rows adding a decorative touch.
  
  13 Needle Positions
  Needle position can be adjusted for techniques, such as inserting zippers or cording, and also topstitching.
  
  Programmable Needle Up and Down
  Select whether the needle is up or down when the machine stops. It is beneficial to have the needle stop in the down position when appliquéing, quilting or pivoting fabric. When removing the fabric from the machine, it is easier if the needle is raised to highest position.

  Audible Tone
  An audible tone confirms pattern and function selection.
  
  Automatic Tension
  This system ensures stable stitch quality, whatever type of fabric is being used.
  
  Automatic Presser Foot Pressure Control
  The amount of pressure exerted on the fabric by the presser foot against the feed dogs is automatic. Sew from the lightest weight tricots to the heaviest denim, without making adjustments.
  
  Jam-Proof Bobbin System
  The bobbin case floats above the hook, precluding thread jams. The machine will not jam, even when sewing on sheer fabric or no fabric at all! The bobbin loads from the top, so it is easy to insert the bobbin. The clear cover makes it easy to monitor the bobbin thread supply.
  
  Automatic Bobbin Winding Clutch
  Needle bar automatically disengages when winding the bobbin, making bobbin winding more convenient.
  
  Extra-High Presser Foot Lifter
  When the Presser Foot Lifter is in extra-high position it offers more clearance, which is needed when placing multiple layers of bulky fabric under the presser foot.
  
  LED Lifetime White Lamp
  The lamp illuminates the sewing surface for optimal viewing. The long-lasting bulb (100,000 hours) stays cool, regardless how long the machine is operated.
  
  6-Segment Feeding System
  There are 6 points of contact between the fabric and the feeding system. The more contact points the better the fabric feeds. With 6-segments even lightweight fabrics feed smoothly.
  
  Box Feed
  This is a feed dog motion that moves the feed dogs in a box motion, rather than the historic arc motion. Box motion assures perfect feeding throughout the entire feed process, as the feed dogs are always in perfect and equal contact with the fabric and presser foot.
  
  Drop Feed Dogs
  A conveniently located lever, easily and effortlessly moved, will lower the feed dogs for free-motion embroidery, monograms, and for attaching buttons.
  
  Aluminum Frame
  The internal skeleton of the sewing machine. This rigid support holds all the mechanisms in perfect alignment for perfect, skip-free sewing.
  
  Electronic Stitch Formation
  All stepper motors are electronically controlled. Digital electronic control of the stepper motors that control the pattern formation allows for perfectly formed patterns every time.

  Snap-On Presser Feet
  Change from one to another effortlessly with a simple push of the foot release button.
