Top Notch Features, Highest Rated Reviews
The Singer Futura CE-250 is a fully electronic sewing machine and computer linked embroidery unit. With the Futura, embroidery is a snap. If you can click a mouse you can embroider! Standard embroidery design software is included. AutoPunch software allows you to digitize your own images. You can download designs from the Internet or CD collections.
Each stitch is electronically formed with optimal settings to make sewing precise. There are 100 stitch options. Six types of 1-step buttonholes have pre-programmed stitch settings which can be adjusted as needed. To make life easy, eleven of the most common stitches have a 1-touch selector button.
Also included is an automatic needle threader and a top drop-in bobbin with a view plate. Drop feed makes free form embroidery easy. You'll have a needle up/down selector, twin needle control and so much more.
For embroidery, you have everything to get started. The CE-250 comes with 5 Windows compatible programs. These will be installed on the home computer. Designs are available from many sources for your project. Use the software on your computer to layout and edit the designs. When the design is complete, send in to your Futura on the included USB cable. You are now ready to embroider!
Personal Review
"Before this, I would do some hoop embroidery manually on my old Singer Touch & Sew 750. Now I can do anything with cloth and thread on my CE-250. Very short learning curve, learning the adjustments for transferring pictures, but now with the simple Windows 7 interface, patches for my buddies are a cinch, did a portrait of my mom's face using the Auto Punch & Photo Stitch software and it looks wonderful hanging on the wall. Singer has done a great job creating this machine, as with all their machines. I don't know how they could make it any better. I'd say it only took about 10 hours to master, and now I can't keep up to the requests for embroidered items."

Sewing Features
Electronic Sewing Machine.
Push button stitch selection. Optimal settings for length and width are automatically set. Settings can be changed to the length and width you choose.
100 Built-In Stitch Programs.
The perfect stitch for every project. Choose from a large variety of stitches for construction, decorative sewing, heirloom sewing and quilting.
7mm Stitch Width.
Most stitches can be set for a maximum width of 7mm. Wide stitches are bolder and more pronounced.
One-Step Built-In Buttonholes.
Choose from four different 1-step buttonholes. Buttonhole sewing is a one-step simple process. Results are reliable because the sides of the buttonhole sew the same direction. This prevents gaps in stitching or fabric distortion.

This is an exclusive Singer development.
- New! Programmable Needle Up and Down.
- Select whether the needle stops up or down when the machine stops. It is helpful to have the needle down when appliqueing, quilting or pivoting fabric. When removing fabric or picking the bobbin thread up, program the needle up.
