TWO STITCH MODES

The Janome Quilt Maker 18 offers two stitch modes: Cruise and Precise. Cruise mode is great for smooth, flowing, or curvy designs because the machine keeps stitching at a slow speed even if you stop moving. Precise mode lets you choose your stitch length and only stitches when you move the machine, making it perfect for sharp corners and detailed patterns with consistent stitches.
