  • Our take on the Janome Horizon Memory Craft 9480QCP

    The Horizon Memory Craft 9480QCP is Janome's computerized quilting and sewing machine, sitting below the Continental M8 in the line. It has 400 built-in stitches, 11 one-step buttonholes, four alphabets and a 9mm stitch width, all driven through a 5-inch color touchscreen. Its top-loading full rotary hook, AcuFeed Flex dual feed and included 1/4-inch seam foot make it a serious piecing and quilting machine. The catch is stitch regulation: the Accurate Stitch Regulator is an optional kit here, while the M8 includes it, so free-motion quilters should budget for the add-on. Owners rate the stitch quality and feed highly; the learning curve and the separate regulator are the usual complaints.

    What reviewers say

    Owners of the Horizon Memory Craft line praise the stitch quality, the AcuFeed feed and the wide stitch selection. Quilters say the machine handles layers and free-motion work well once set up. The main gripes are the learning curve and having to buy the stitch regulator separately.

    Does it include the Accurate Stitch Regulator?
    No. The ASR kit is an optional accessory for the 9480QCP. It comes standard only with the Continental M8.
    How is it different from the Continental M8?
    The M8 includes the ASR kit and has a larger harp space. The 9480QCP shares the stitch library and AcuFeed system but needs the regulator added.
    Can it do free-motion quilting without the ASR?

    400 built-in stitches, 11 one-step buttonholes and four alphabets, including 9mm lettering and numbers.
