Just got a M7 this week. I'm a quilter and any video that will help me learn more about my machine is greatly appreciated. Thank you.
Great video, looking forward to more. Just bought the M7 and feeling a little overwhelmed but excited too.
Thank you so much for this fabulous video. My husband surprised me with the M7 in October. I’m still playing and really appreciate all the helpful hints I can get. I’m used to quilting my quilts on a long arm. I will definitely be checking out more of your videos. Thank you!

I received an M7 for Christmas. I would like videos on this amazing machine!
You should check out my Clubhouse on AmyQuilts.teachable.com It's all sorts of videos for the M7 and other similar machines.
I am excited to hear of the clubhouse for this machine. My dealer is 50 miles away they do have classes but I can't get to them as much as I would like. It's going to be great to learn how to use this machine. I bought mine in Nov. and I have a lot to learn with it.
I just quilted 2 large 70 x 88 quilts and it was a dream with the M7. It was wonderful. I am definitely interested in the Club
The M7 is awesome!

Thank you Amy 😻 I learned a few things about my 9450 by watching this.
Glad it was helpful!
I love this video! Just found you today as I was looking for M7 videos. Mine is in the box just waiting for my Horn table to arrive! I’m a garment sewer but with my new M7 I’m excited to try quilting...with your helpful videos! 🥰 Put me in “quilt club”!
Would love to learn more on my new M7. No classes available at my quilt shop till April. Thanks so much.

Are you happy with your M7?
I just purchased the M7 - I would love to see more videos.
Wonderful! You may want to check out my AmyQuilts page on Facebook. I've been doing move videos there these days.
Definitely interested in the club. I have a 12000 and still feel I haven’t mastered all it has to offer! I do love your teaching style - Thank you for all your videos. Moira Anderson, UK
I would love some more videos on the capabilities of my new M7
Would love any videos on the M7. I just purchased one.
My AmyQuilts Clubhouse has a ton of videos on the M7, but you'll occasionally find a few here on my channel.
I just purchased the M 7 and love it a club showing how to use this machine would be great
Bernadette Hughes I've git just the thing! Check it out at Amyquilts.teachable.com
I purchased the M7 Continental a few months ago and would love to see videos
Absolutely would love to join your clubhouse. I have the M7 and am still intimidated
Registration for the AmyQuilts Clubhouse is open now at: amyquilts.teachable.com/
I have a 8900QCP and would love to be in the clubhouse! I loved your Craftsy classes!
Not sure if you saw that we were taking new members for my Clubhouse, but it's open until Sunday. I don't think we ever got you onto the waiting list. AmyQuilts.teachable.com
I can only dream of having a machine like this. I was just gifted a smaller mechanical machine. It's the pq1500sl. It's not anywhere near the m7 category but I like it a lot. Maybe next year I'll be gifted the m7...lol
I’m looking forward to clubhouse videos. Just got my M7 and looking forward to learning more about this fantastic machine. Thank you

I’m new to this machine 😬 I upgraded from the Janome 6600p . I’m trying to learn this machine , love ur free motion .
You can do it!
Very interested in this. I have an M7 and your video a,plready showed me some things I hadn’t known. Thank you!
Daune Spritzer you may want to check out my upcoming members-only group for using your janome machine! It's the AmyQuilts Clubhouse and you can read about it here : www.freemotionquiltingadventures.com/2020/01/amyquilts-clubhouse.html?m=1
I just got my M7 on Monday (and it’s now Friday), and I’m working my way through the manual, seeing what it can do. I’m interested in learning more about your Janome training club.
It's a fabulous machine! Enjoy. You may want to check out my AmyQuilts Clubhouse at amyquilts.teachable.com/ if you'd like some online support.
Yay!😊
Thank you for the video. I'm looking forward to your other videos. Very helpful.
Thank you.
Thinking about buying the M7. Currently have the Janome 14000, but have a hard time finding tutorials for this machine. Would love to see more free motion videos.
I have a ton of videos on free motion quilting here on youtube, but I also have a paid membership that covers the basics and beyond for several higher end Janomes, including the M7 and info on the 15000 that also applies to the 14000. The M7 is AMAZING!
I would love more M7 videos!
I do have more here on youtube, but the majority of the videos I do on the M7 are saved for my members of the AmyQuilts Sewing Clubhouse at amyquilts.teachable.com/ It's like having a virtual dealer with online streaming video lessons on several of Janome's bigger machines.
I have the M7 and 550E... so I would love more videos!

I love my machine. Want to learn embroidery on it,
Would love to learn more about M7 classes
I would love to see more videos too!
I'll be posting some here as always, but we go into greater depth on the M7 and a few other machines with the AmyQuilts Clubhouse (amyquilts.teachable.com/) and while we only open up to new members about 3-4 times a year, we will be opening up in early January if you are interested.
Thanks for a great and thorough quilting with the M7. I absolutely need more classes on this. Please advise. Now it’s October 2021! And I can’t find much on the M7 especially the quilting features. Are you doing any free motion quilting classes right now? ❤️ my M7
I have the 9450 and would love more videos.

I wonder why there is so little discussion on free motion embroidery. I’ve never had much desire to have a machine that embroidered someone else’s designs. I think this machine would be exceptional for free motion embroidery because you can use the knee lift bar to vary the width of zig zag, something that might work magic with the craft and I think the motor would hold up well. I’ve just put a deposit on this whale, and I’ll give some fme a shot and let you know.
I know this is late in the game, but I NEED the club!! Just bought an M7 in NC at my closest Janome dealer, and have gone from loving it to all kinds of free motion problems, Could it be the 50 wt cotton thread? Amy, you and your video are the BEST. You have given me hope.
I'm opening up the Clubhouse to new members soon!
@@AmyQuilts YIPPEEEE!!!
Christine-- the clubhouse is open until Sunday. I don't think we ever got you onto the waiting list. AmyQuilts.teachable.com
I wish you would have shown how to thread the bobbin
Would love a new series. I have a 6700p
I just got my M7 last week, and I’m doing my first free motion project (throw pillow sham) with it. Great video! I generally sew clothing, but I would be very interested in subscribing to your training videos. 😊🧵
Sew Snoqualmie to get more info on my AmyQuilts Clubhouse, just send an email to info@amyquilts.com 😊
Amy Johnson will do!

Hi Amy, when constructing quilt squares, using 1/4" seams, do I always go to the Quilt stitches and the 1/4" on page 1 of 7? Thank you.
Not necessarily. There's a couple of ways to get that 1/4" on this machine
love this machine.......
I would love videos on the 15,000!
Liz Thibodeaux you might want to email info@amyquilts.com for more info on my Clubhouse. There will be a lot on the 15000.
Would be interested. I’ve had my M7 a month and haven’t experimented very much yet.
we just ended an enrollment period for our Clubhouse. Go to Amyquilts.teachable.com to get on the notifications list so you don't miss it in December when we open enrollment again.
I tried to use the walking foot with the quarter inch foot attached on my M7 but when I put on the correct base plate it automatically moved the needle to a middle position instead of the quarter inch position. So I had to put the regular base plate back on. I use a walkinf foot with the quarter inch attachment for binding.
I'm very interested in janome m7 Club😊
Thanks for the video. Do you feel it needs the Blue Dot Bobbin Case or ok without it?
I find that is OK without it, because when using the application menu for free motion, it increases the tension for you! Sometimes I do increase the tension a little bit more. The machine makes that so easy! It goes back to the normal tension when you are done.
Hola. Mi nombre es Mar y acabo de comprar una janome m7. Creo que la máquina es una maravilla, pero querría que me ayudara con una consulta sobre ella. Es necesario para el acolchado de movimiento libre cambiarle el pirtabobina? El resultado merece la pena? Gracias.
❤❤hermosoooo 👏👏💯💯👍👍!!!
I’m interested!
What pressure foot did you use to do your free motion quilting? Did you use the straight stitch foot? I would be interested in your club Amy. Thank you for this video.
I am so glad I found you. Is it too late to sign up?
It is not! Go to amyquilts.teachable.com registration ends 3/1/20 though we'll open it up again later this year again.
Just got mine a few weeks ago. still learning all the bells and whistles. which foot is that for free motion foot.
Does this machine do embroidery too if not what's the best machine for embroidery
My thread breaks after doing just a few stitches of FMQ with the PD-H foot. Only after I removed the bobbin holder then replaced it along with the bobbin I was able to FMQ. I am using the blue dot bobbin so I am unclear as to why resetting the bobbin holder would make a difference.
Forgot to add that I am using a Janome M7 machine
I just heard about a blue dot bobbin casing for free motion. Is that necessary?
Do you have a instruction video on using the echo foot?
Why not use the blue dot (low tension) bobbin case that’s specifically for free motion?
You can if you want. But using the applications menu to set up for free motion automatically increases the top tension for you. Tightening the top tension is the same as reducing the bobbin tension without making another purchase. Fine tuning the tension is super easy if needed no matter the method.
Threading the machine changing the foot etc?
Can you use the M7 on a cuttie frame
I bought a M7 and I'm still on the fence. The design stitches are not as crisp as I thought they should be with the price tag they asked for.
Do you need a low tention bobbin case for free motion quilting for this machine? Are the feed dogs the same as those on the 9400? Can you use a leather needle?
I am trying to free motion quilt with cuddle on the back. My machine will not move. What is the trick to this Please!
Are there any patterns for the M7 Continental to follow instead just stabbing in the dark? I'm a newbie
Patterns? I'm not sure I understand your question. You can use any pattern you desire on this machine. Or are you asking about free motion quilting designs? Or a guide for learning this machine? Janome does have a M7 workbook you can purchase, and I have the AmyQuilts Clubhouse, which is a membership program centered around learning more about your higher end Janome, including the M7. Our shop is currently out of the workbook, check with your dealer. Info about my Clubhouse: amyquilts.teachable.com/p/amyquilts-sewing-clubhouse. No stabbing necessary.... Leave me another comment with clarification and I do my best to answer.
I have followed these directions and my M7 is stuck in place when the feed dogs are lowered. If I continue the bobbin thread breaks. I have the blue dot bobbin in place. If I raise the feed dogs, off we go. I don't understand what I'm doing wrong.
Did you figure this out? I guess TH-cam doesn't notify me of every video comment. I just saw this.
How much is this model? Could you do more demos on this machine w/o subscription? Then I may be tempted to buy it from you! :)
I saw an MSRP of $8000.00 on the Janome site. A bargain compared to the berninas I was looking at!
Oh...M7 needs a separate walking foot...no accufeed? I have a 1600p Janome which I love but hate having to use a clunky walking foot for straight line quilting. Does the 6700 work well?
M7 has Acufeed. Even has a separate motor to drive it! 6700P is great too, like the M7's little brother.
@@AmyQuilts
thank you!
Where an I buy one
Like to free motion quilting
I struggle tocorrectly adjusting the tension for free motion quilting on my current janome which is a horizon 8200 can you show how easily it is corrected, on this machine. Also i just watched a video on non janome machine that needs oiling, does this one. is this a machine you will need to oil.
Does Janome S9 combo have an HP foot and plate?
I purchased an M7 2 weeks ago and have had a miserable time trying to get the tension correct on anything...actually taking it back on Monday after speaking with Janome in NJ and the shop where purchased. It has a couple of other issues as well...hope they all will be resolved to satisfaction. Would love to get into the Clubhouse, but see it is closed to new members...any insight as to if/when you might be opening to new members?
Stay well...stay safe...Hugs
Look for me to open up enrollment in August! Sign up for an email notification here: www.amyquilts.com/amyquilts-clubhouse-subscription-classes.htm
@@AmyQuiltsThanks so much. Looking forward to this. Assuming all on line
I’m interested in m7 instructions
Check out my AmyQuilts Sewing Clubhouse! amyquilts.teachable.com/p/amyquilts-sewing-clubhouse
Amy, I’m interested in this machine, but I do have the Artistic quilter and planning to get rid of it for the m7...am I doing a good thing? Cause I like to make bags also, and need something stronger than the 6600..your thoughts??
I feel like I already answered this somewhere, or someone else is making the same choice....The M7 is heads and heels above the 6600! Giving up the Artistic Quilter...that's a tough one!
I want a machine that does embroidery me as well as sewing
Look at the Janome 15000 or go smaller with the S9
Janome 6650 for putting with a frame will it work with ruler
Technically, yes. Practically....I don't know that it's worth it. Longer rulers will wobble without a ruler base, and once you start rolling up the quilt, you'll be limited to a narrow field of stitching.
Please Help... I'm in tears. Bought this machine, Covid-19 hit! I am getting massive "eye lashes" when free motion quilting... any advise is greatly appreciated. Thank you
Have you been able to remedy the problem? I hope so!
Lisa Sowers is say 1) slow down in curves, 2) increase your top tension.
How do you get the foot controller to work
I would like to join the clubhouse I have a m7

I have a Janome 11000 with upgrade that I don't know how to use all the machine quilting features. Class was to far away from me when I bought it. Is the 11000 upgrade included in your class?
I'm sorry, we don'r cover the 11000 in the clubhouse. I became a dealer after it was retired from sale, so I just don't know it well enough to include it.
@@AmyQuilts Thank you for your terrific video and quick response! I just wish I could use the upgrade kit.
Just got an M7, there’s just not a lot out there explaining this machine.
Check out AmyQuilts.teachable.com. It's my answer to online new owner lessons
What did you put the height to? I have the m7
I typically set it to right around 1mm high, but it all depends on the batting
Would the Horizon 7700 be included?
Sadly, no. The machines I've chosen to cover in the clubhouse all have 9mm feet, a different Acufeed, and a different needle plate system.
👍
More videos 👍
I've been looking at this machine hard for a few days. Can any owners tell me if they also garment sew, what are any pros and cons?
I’ve owned it two weeks, and I think it’s going to be wonderful for whatever I want to sew; clothes, lingerie, quilts, fme, rope baskets and rugs, Mylar Barbie clothes....
Because your camera is focused only on the needle plate area, we do not see how you pop the needle plate or lower the quilting foot. Shame, cos as a newbie that's what I need to see. Can someone else film as otherwise I like your tutorials

I would love some more videos on the capabilities of my new M7
You might want to check out my AmyQuilts Clubhouse at amyquilts.teachable.com Enrollment is only open a few times a year and it's open now through Sunday (October 11, 2020)
Does the tension automatically adjust for FMQ work?
It does! You may need to fine tune it, especially if you are new to free motion and hands aren't smooth in movement, or if using an odd thread combination.
