Janome 1600P-QC High-speed Straight-Stitch Sewing Machine

Fast speeds and smart design make the 1600P-QC the perfect machine for sewing and quilting! You'll find everything you need to complete projects quickly and easily: Speeds of 1,600 stitches per minute make this the fastest machine on the market; nearly 9" x 6" to the right of the needle gives an extra wide work area; the side-loading bobbin allows for easy access, even from a quilt frame; the automatic thread cutter cuts top and bobbin thread at the push of a button; and the ergonomic knee lift offers a full range of adjustment so you can find the size that fits you.


Key Features

Presser Foot Sensor
This unique sensor system will not allow you to start sewing with the presser foot in UP position.
Memorized UP/DOWN Needle Setting
The exclusive Up/Down needle button lets you control the needle's position when you stop sewing. Set it for UP when you want to move your fabric; DOWN for corners and pivots.
Independent Bobbin Winder
The independent bobbin winder works separately from the main motor so you can fill your next bobbin while you sew.
Variable Speed Control
Slide setting from about 70 stitches per minute to 1600 stitches per minute.
Automatic Thread Cutter
Cut the top and bobbin threads at the push of a button. ALSO can be used from quilt frame handle via cable hookup.
Easy Reverse
Ergonomic Knee Lift
Quilt for hours in comfort with our ergonomic knee lift. With a full range of adjustment from left to right, you can find the position that fits you best.
Super Pressure
The 1600P-QC provides up to 11 lbs of pressure from the presser foot. That's the greatest pressure available on the market today for a home straight stitch machine. Power through even the thickest layers of fabric without shifting.
Sew Smooth
Vibration-dampening rubber, precision parts, and a hollow needle bar guarantee a smooth and quiet sewing experience.
Side-Loading, Industrial Rotary Hook Bobbin
The side loading bobbin allows for easy access, even while the 1600P-QC is on a quilt frame.
Smooth Feeding Thread and Diagram
The 1600P-QC has a Pre-Tension thread regulator that takes the kinks out of your thread before it goes through the tension mechanism.

Grace Continuum II Machine Quilting Frame

For over 30 years, the Grace Company has produced some of the finest machine–quilting frames available. Our popular Continuum Frame combined some of the most sought after features into a modular system that’s available for quilters of every level and nearly every sewing machine type.

With steel and cast–alloy components, the frame is one of the sturdiest and longest–lasting frames ever designed. This modular frame has many available configurations and accessories. This is a no–baste frame designed to make your quilting projects easier, more convenient, and more beautiful.

Note: The included frame is the standard 8 foot. The 10 and 12 foot size is also available! Choose the 10' or 12' Continuum II Frame from the dropdown before checkout.

Configured to meet your needs

The Continuum II Frame can be configured in multiple set–ups and optional accessories, so it will be the perfect fit for you no matter what your quilting requires. Think you might upgrade your machine to a longarm in the future? The Continuum II frame can work with your short or midarm machine now, and then be adjusted for a longarm when you need it. Add the optional accessories now or later to make your quilting process more convenient.

NO–BASTE QUILTING RAIL SYSTEM

The Continuum II Quilting Frame saves you valuable time by eliminating the ordeal of basting. All the quilt layers are attached to their own rails, and then come together and on to the take–up rail as you quilt. Grace frames use locking ratchet ends on the rails to give you precise control over the tension of your fabric layers.

New Racheting System

The ratcheting system has been fully integrated into the Continuum II, and has quick-toggle locks for immediate adjustments as needed.

Continuum II Frame Features

SURETRACK DUAL–WHEEL SYSTEM

SURETRACK DUAL–WHEEL SYSTEM

This smooth gliding track system enhances stitch quality, accuracy, and carriage motion.

CHANNEL LOCKS

CHANNEL LOCKS

Conveniently lock your machine motion into either back and forth, or side to side motion. Perfect for straight lines.

LEVELING FEET

LEVELING FEET

No matter what floor your frame is on, these feet are an easy way to make sure it's level and balanced.

ADJUSTABLE DEPTH

ADJUSTABLE DEPTH

Adjust the depth of your work area to match your quilting frame. Get closer when working on short–arm quilting machine, or expand your space for larger patterns with a long–arm.

HEIGHT–ADJUSTABLE LEGS

HEIGHT–ADJUSTABLE LEGS

Optional Accessories for Your Continuum Frame

Batting Rail

The batting rail (or fourth rail) accessory is a convenient way to manage and hold your batting layer. Keep your batting organized and off the floor by rolling it on this rail.

Idler Rail

This convenient accessory eliminates the need to constantly stop and adjust your take–up rail. The more you quilt, the more space is taken up on the take–up rail in the throat of your machine. This normally means you have to watch your space closely, and adjust the take–up rail higher when the quilt fabric starts rubbing between it and your machine. This idler rail solves that problem by letting the fabric collect on the take up–rail at a higher position, so you don't need worry about adjusting your take–up rail anymore!

Note: The idler rail accessory will only work with longarm or midarm quilting machines that have a larger throat space.

ALSO GREAT WITH A WIDE VARIETY OF OTHER MACHINES

The frame has an adjustable depth, so you can change the work–space and quilt comfortably with a long–arm or a domestic short–arm machine. When you order the Continuum frame for use with a short–arm machine, an top–carriage with handles will be provided, as well as a speed–control. Call Toll Free: 800-401-8151 to ask about using the Continuum Frame with other quilting machine models.
