Quilting/Embroidery Question
I've made a couple of quilts using Anita Goodesign technique of embroidering on stabilizer/batting/fabric. While gorgeous, they are VERY heavy and stiff.

Tightening the hoop
Cut about 1" strips of shelf liner stuff for each side of your hoop. It doesn't cause extra pressure on the screws but gives a non-slip surface for hooping just stabilizer. Some people make a square a

Janome 14000
Where are you? Good gracious I wish I knew! Only thing I know for sure is that I'm not in Kansas. Oh wait, maybe you meant the lady with the 14000 question.

Question about embroidery on tee shirts
I agree with Mary. Some designs are just too dense to embroider well on t-shirts.

Maybe you should believe the message that says your screen resolution is too low. Asus should be able to help you fix that.

Be sure you have the correct foot on - error
Could it possibly be that the straight needle plate is on and you want to zigzag? Or that the button for the walking foot is pushed? Those things elicit that message too.

New member, new owner of a 12000
Get yourself a thread stand that sits next to the machine instead of using the one that is built-in on the top. You will find it much easier when changing thread colors for embroidery. Then, too, you

12000 Machine for Sale
I agree with Virginia. I was waiting to hear of a new machine and then went ahead and bought the 15000. It is very little different from my 12000 and I'm sorry I didn't just wait.

Is there a 17000 on the horizon?
So i guess that there is no 17000 on the horizon! That said, I just bought an "event" 15000. So now I have a 6600P, an 11000, 12000 and 15000. Thinking I'll sell the 11000 and take the 12000 to class
