Embroidery Positioning Marker
Using the newest embroidery foot from Janome, the LED pointer aligning feature can show the position of your needle on the fabric below. This feature lets you see exactly where your needle will strike before stitching begins for extreme precision. Perfect for designs that need to be placed in precisely the correct position. Use the LED pointer with the baste function to ensure your design is exactly where you want it to be.
Thumb Wheel
Located to the right of the needle. This industry-first is a great convenience feature that lets you raise or lower the needle without having to reach over to the handwheel.
Floating Mode
While in floating mode, the Continental M17 will not extend full pressure to the presser foot while feeding fabric. This will protect delicate or high pile fabrics like velvet.
