Grace Sturdy-Lite Quilting Frame & Janome 1600P-DB High Speed Sewing Machine w/ Heavy-duty Darning Foot & Plate

Janome 1600P-DB Long-arm High-Speed Sewing Machine

The 1600P-DB high speed sewing machine has the DB needle. Like the other 1600 Professional machines, it sews a straight stitch at 1,600 stitches per minute, the fastest on the market. From the new "Liquid Response" foot control to the pre-tension system, everything on this machine is built for high quality stitches at professional speeds. But while it gives you the performance of an industrial machine, it also gives you the quiet operation and sleek design of a Janome.

An extra large 9" x 5" work area gives you room for the largest projects. A knee lift lets you raise the presser foot while keeping your hands on your work. An independent motor allows you to wind bobbins while you're sewing. And 10.5 lbs. of presser foot pressure ensures that your layers of fabric won't shift, making it the ideal quilting machine.
