Traditional sewing
The Machine
Oh how stitches have evolved
Now stitches even have characteristics
– and are organized into groups!
Of course you'll find the straight, zigzag
and buttonholes, but now we've
expanded to include specialty quilting
and heirloom, satin, floral, cross,
directional feed designs – 320 in all.
No hoop needed
Monogramming a pocket, cuff
or perhaps a handkerchief ? These
alphabets could be the answer.
Select one of five lettering styles –
7mm block, 7, 15 and 25 mm script, 7
mm outline. And again we've included
special marks for a variety
of languages.
It's time to play
You can team up some interesting
combinations. For instance, take
a satin stitch from group 4, elongate
it and combine it with a directional
feed design from group 11.
Consider the possibilities!
How did they do that?
With the two-color key! Select
different color threads for needle
and bobbin and watch how the
machine automatically alternates
between sewing needle thread and
bobbin thread on the fabric right side.
A very eye-catching effect.
Stray from the straight path
In the past, your machine has always
fed the fabric only straight ahead.
Not anymore! Directional feed offers
you so much more. One intriguing
example is the cascade key. Now your
designs can meander down
six different avenues.
Need an extra hand?
It's the knee lifter to the rescue. Pivoting
corners is now just a touch away with
the hands-free knee lifter. And since the
needle always stops down, you're always
ready to make your turn.
Let the machine do it
No more tension-setting questions.
Select a stitch and the automated thread
release system takes control.
It self adjusts based on the type of stitch
being sewn. But for your special tech-
niques, simply press a key to override.
No thread, no go
Running out of needle or bobbin
thread right in the middle –
what a dilemma. Not with the Xquisit II.
The machine will stop and alert
you to rethread.
Treasures for tomorrow
Memories are the building blocks
for the future. Save your treasures
to one of the 20 traditional sewing
or 32 embroidery sewing permanent
memories. Save, overwrite, recall, delete.
Shedding more light
The Xquisit II has emerged from
the darkness. Two lights – one above
the needle and one over the sewing
bed – allow you to see your creations
as they come alive.
