Love your videos. So glad I found you. I bought my Janome MC500E last December and finally been able to figure it out. Ive had a MC300E for 17 years and decided I want bigger hoops. And bought the 500e thinking it would be easy since having the 300E..lol. Going from the card to a USB drive has had me so confused. I think your video is going to be a big help because you showed how to out a bought design from the computer to USB and then to the machine..thank you!! Only one other person on RUclips has done that. I will be watching your videos now for more help. Thank you again from New Jersey, USA.
Hi Kathleen, I’m so pleased that my videos are useful. I’ve had my 550E just over a year and thought it would be nice to share my journey and things I’ve learnt on the way. Thank you so much for watching and I hope you are enjoying working with your new machine. 🫶🏽💕
Thank you for your time and talent. We appreciate you sharing this with us! Have you thought about cutting out the letters BEFORE placing them down? Depending on what software you have, you can print out the design and cut out the letters individually. You can then remove the hoop after the placement stitching, iron the letters in place and put back in and finish the piece. Of course, as I said, it depends on the software you use. I use Embrilliance Essentials but other softwares work also. Again, thank you!
Hi, that’s a fantastic idea.!! That would save me a lot of time. I use Embird for digitising so I believe I can use this method. Thank you so much for watching, your support and suggestion, I really appreciate it. 🫶🏽
Hi. Thanks for this video. Its very informative and i just got myself a second hand janome 500e and want to mainly do applique work. Couldnt figure out how you first ran the needle to create the letters before placing on thee final fabric to applique it. Please need help with that.
I'm curious about the clips you used for the fabric. It's genius to pin the fabric to the stabilizer also! Never thought of doing that! I learn something new every time I watch your videos!

Hey my lovely, great work! I’m having issues with tension I think. ??? I’ve tried multiple tensions and even bobbin tensions. I’m having no luck. I’m currently trying the built in font ‘I’ test. But it’s looking like the ‘I’ is zigy zagy all around. Almost like it’s going to punch out. Even when on low tension. I even followed your video on cleaning my janome machine. Please help. What top tension do you use
Hi Toni, I have never altered the tension on the machine. Have you tried a different type of stabiliser? I’m not sure if this is a factor but my machine is set at 600 spm. I wish I could be of more help. If I find anything about tension, I’ll come back and comment. 🫶🏽💕

I know this video about a year old and hope you can answer my questions. I was told the Janome 500 thru 550e always needs to be oil, is this true. If yes, how many times does it need to be oil? And, I was told Janome is very sensitive to the types of threads used, is this true? Thank you.
Hi there. Yes it needs oiling regularly especially if you use it frequently. Although it a chore to oil the parts are easy to get to. I have only used the brothread embroidery thread and I’ve had no issues with this brand of thread. I have a video of me oiling the machine on my channel, here is the link ruclips.net/video/G3YYYcd39vk/видео.htmlsi=21xtL7bu4EKHYacL I hope this helps, please do let me know if I can be of further assistance. 🙏🏾

Hi Daisy, I chose Embird because it was the most affordable for me between that and Hatch. I liked the way the software worked as it was similar to design software that I had used in the past. I also liked that I could get a plug in where I could embroider fonts from my computer. Thank you for watching 🫶🏽💕
Hi, thank you for this video! I want to start my adventure with embroidery. On most test of this machine are people saying that is not possible to work on ready clothes. As we can see it is possible. Do you think is it good equipment for beginner? I think about emoroidery on t-shirts. How long did this embroidery take you?
Hi there, yes you definitely can embroider on ready clothes it just takes some positioning. I had never used an embroidery machine before I got this one a few months ago, so I would say it’s a great machine for a beginner. The actual embroidery was quite quick the part that took some time was me cutting around my applique - the actual stitching was maybe 6-7 minutes. I hope this helps, please let me know if there is anything else I can help with. Have an amazing day.
Hi Daisy. Yes, I live in the Uk (London). I purchased my Janome from Talash sewing Center in the south of London - they are very helpful in there and Tysew in west London also have them and they are equally as helpful. I like it due to its large hoop. I would say visit a store to see how the machines stitch and all the functions in person. There are so many lovely embroidery machines out there. Let me know if I can be of any further assistance. 🫶🏽
