Thank you so much, very clear and so easy to understand. The instructions that came with the machine are hopeless ... you are a life saver as I have been really struggling
thank you for these incredibly helpful videos, for a visual learner as I am they are a game changer!!! I just tried stitching out some intials and was disappointed in the script letters since they are all connected by jump stitches which need to be trimmed. Is there any way to tie off the thread after individual letters automatically ?
You'd have to do two separate lines of stitching, I believe. I don't have this machine anymore so I would check with your Janome dealer for exact details but I don't believe you can do more than one line at a time.
I have the Janome Horizon purchased several years ago - from what I can tell, there is no way to squeeze the letters closer together - this makes the "script" function almost useless in my opinion, because the individual cursive letters are too far apart to look normal. Do you have any tricks for making the letters, whether block or script closer together?
There isn't much you can do to change the spacing unless you stitched one letter at a time and moved your needle to where you want that letter to start on your fabric and then stitched - quite time consuming but it could work.
The monograms on sewing machines will only go to a certain size and they aren't very large. To do large letters, you really need to use an embroidery machine where you can stitch them just about any size you'd want.
The best place to get this information is from a Janome authorized dealer (I'm not a dealer or Janome rep). They should be able to explain the differences between these two machines, which are very similar.
Hi Kim, thank you for the tutorial. Is there a way to put multiple lines of text...say I want the first line to say "Carol Leary" then under it "Feb. 9, 2018" Then the next line "Sewn with love for Christa Leary" or is that something we have to do in 3 stages? Thank you!
Hmmm, I'll have to check that out, Carol. Off the top of my head I think you might have to do 3 lines, but I'll check and see. Maybe a topic for an upcoming video ;)
I have a Janome MC 11000 and I am so lost it is not funny . I want to learn monogram really bad but have NO idea how or where I am a hands on person.. Any help please
Hi Shelley: I'm not familiar with that machine, but I would suggest: 1. Check with your local Janome dealer as they typically provide lessons on machines they sell 2. Check on TH-cam to see if there are videos on that particular machine. Sorry, I'm not able to help you with this one, but hopefully you'll be able to get help from one of these options.
I have enjoyed your videos. I have been able to use different functions of my machine with more confidence. . THANKS
Good information to jump start trying to stitch a quilt label on my 9450. On my list of tasks
Thank you so much, very clear and so easy to understand. The instructions that came with the machine are hopeless ... you are a life saver as I have been really struggling
Thanks, Kim! Your videos are so helpful!
Another excellent video Thank you!
Thank you so much I wondered what those little boxes were far and I could not figure out how to use a space
You're welcome!
Thank you for sharing... I couldn’t understand how to space. 👍🏼
Glad it was helpful!
would have loved to see an example

I believe that each letter is tied off so I would just snip the threads to get rid of them. At least that's what I do ;)
Hi Kim
Thank you for your great tutorials.
Please could you tell me how I can get text displayed on two lines?
Thank you

@@Chatterboxquilts Thank you
Well this is exactly the same screens and functions on my S7 so how cool is that?
Very cool, Rose!😉

How do you make the letters larger? Even when I press the button fora larger script it remains very small

Hello there,
Could you please guide me through the differences between Janome QCP 9400 and Janome QCP 9450

thank you so much for these tutorials !
it's a pity that instructions provided with the machine are so poor
Amen, Janome should hire Kim to do their tutorials.
Can you have different sizes? Like 7 mm r 9mm?
I'll have to check on this for you... I'm not sure that you can as there are larger and smaller sizes built into the machine in this area.
Can your turn your font words into cursive ?
You'll only be able to use the fonts that are included with the machine.
How do you keep them straight
Hi: I often draw a line with an erasable pen on the fabric and use the edge of the foot to follow along it when I'm stitching.
