The Janome Skyline S5 Anniversary Edition is a computerized sewing and quilting machine for everyday sewing, home décor, fashion, patchwork and quilting. It has 170 built-in stitches, 10 one-step buttonholes and 4 fonts. The work area measures 8.3" x 4.7", and the maximum stitch width is 9 mm.
It sews at up to 1,000 stitches per minute, with a speed control slider to set low, medium or high. One-touch buttons on the front handle start/stop, reverse, auto-lock, needle up/down and the thread cutter. It also has an automatic thread cutter and the Superior Needle Threader 2.
The Superior Feed System Plus uses a 7-piece feed dog that moves in a box feed motion. All feed teeth rise together to grip the fabric evenly, then drop together at the end of each movement so the fabric doesn't shift while the needle is in it. Adjustable Foot Pressure works with this system for consistent feeding on a range of fabrics.
