CONTINENTAL M6

 

The CONTINENTAL M6 has everything you need in a quilting without the unnecessary frills. The 13.71″ seamless flatbed provides a slick surface for your projects.

Extra Large Seamless Flatbed Workspace
The CONTINENTAL Series has large sewing space. With 13 ½” of workspace, a total work area of 17.81”, more than 3” in the needle/needle plate section, and Bright white LED lighting to illuminate your sewing space with shadow-free coverage, your sewing capacity will improve all around. With an added extra wide table of 26.77” x 15.75”, you’ll have even more workspace. It has a built-in drawer so that you can keep all of your favorite accessories at your fingertips.
7 inch color LCD touch screen
Interacting with the spacious 7″ touchscreen feels as intuitive as using your favorite tablet. Illuminate your sewing area brilliantly with 9 powerful white LEDs placed strategically in
four locations for shadow-free coverage.
Superior Needle Threader 2
Threading could not be easier. Set your thread, push the lever, release, and sew. The Superior Needle Threader 2’s advanced design feeds the thread through the eye of the needle.
Mirage Stitch
Use Mirage Stitches to add an interesting design element to your project. These unique stitches offer a satin look in a variety of shapes with spaces between each motif, making the stitches appear to float on the fabric! Janome Mirage Stitches are infinitely customizable with separate tension and stitch length settings for both the hidden connecting jump stitches and the main satin stitch. This effect can be used on either one or two pieces of fabric.
Tapering Function
You can taper the beginning and end of the decorative stitch patterns to create tapered corners and points.
Automatic Needle Plate Conversion
Using the right tools at the right time is essential in sewing. A straight stitch needle plate makes all the difference when using lightweight fabrics or piecing quilts. Our Computerized One Touch Plate Converter allows you to easily switch and use the perfect plate for your sewing project. Push the on-screen button to release the plate and place a new one in place. The CONTINENTAL M6 comes with two standard needle plates: zigzag and straight stitch.
