Thanks so much for posting this demonstration of the Janome CPX 3000 Professional Serger. You omitted mentioning a wonderful feature, which is, you can sew right off the edge of the fabric and the stitches will lock! You don’t need to release and pull the needle threads to the front, cut them and pull them to the back of the fabric any more!! This is a major improvement!!
Yes, there's many wonderful features and improvements of the CoverPro 3000 Professional, but with limited time and SEW many things to demo, there's only so much I can mention. It's no fun revealing all the secrets! lol!
oh YAY! Congratulations on your fabulous new machine! One reason why I love it is it is indeed a versatile machine! So many fun things to create with it! Happy Sewing!
Thanks for this tutorial. I enjoy watching them, especially about all the different machines. Such a big world of sewing out there! I'm not really a garment sewer but still find it all very interesting, and I love Janome machines, they are the best!
@@amandas.439 There's many reasons for skipped stitches,- be sure you're using the correct needles, for example, but one of the new developments in this machine is the improved, stronger feeding system with wider, higher and differently cut feed dogs than previous models. There's more contact with the fabrics, which will also help eliminate skipped stitches.
@@amandas.439 I just commented on this same thing. I have had the 1000cp for a few years. It is wonderful, and the binding attachments are amazing. BUT it STILL skips stiches, and I'm so over it! Mine doesn't even skip on seams, it just skips randomly. I've tried EVERYTHING over the past 4 years. Super frequently changing the needles helps the most but it's still not enough. I went in to finally switch brands today. Then I saw this and it looks so good! I'd love to keep my baseplate and binding attachments. I just want to know that it won't skip stitches!
I’ve had the 2000 since May and used it a lot and UNPICKED A LOT because it is very unpredictable even not changing settings or fabrics. There is no rhyme or reason to it but this looks more man enough for the job. Anyone out there who’s not selling who can shed light on their experiences of the 3000?
Im so grateful you have a regular camera view It is so annoying to try to see enough camera view on close up shots on the narrow view we have been subjected to on other videos. Don't mean to complain and sound grumpy but I view all your videos on my smartphone
Thanks for showing this wonderful machine. I can't wait until it is available where I live. Only negative is the instructional DVD as no DVD drive on my computer usb stick would be good. So good all my binders will fit hope my extension table also will fit. So waiting impatiently here hopefully before christmas
My pleasure, Jan! I'm just loving this machine! I picked up an inexpensive external hard drive for my laptop in order to run the various CDs. This machine would make an awesome Christmas present, indeed!
Instructions on DVD ! Who owns a DVD player anymore ? VHS, 8 track, cassette players and DVD are obsolete. Glad we have these podcast tutorials that are very informative.
Hi Sandy. Janome has indeed been listening to feedback and has recently discontinued production of Instructional DVDs in favour of videos on You Tube. I bought an external DVD player for my laptop for about $25 so the option is available if wanted/needed, but videos are definitely on the rise with more on the way. Happy Sewing!
At 10:24 i see skipped stitches on the side seem when the seem goes over the bulk of the fabric. This was often happening with my janome 1000cp and it seems it is still happening with this new model. Pity because the idea of top cover stitch was very appealing.
I couldn't find them. I'm concerned about this too. Also concerned about whether it can handle multiple layers of denim, as I want to sew jeans, and don't really do much with knits at all.
Any sewist and machine can encounter skipped stitches. That's all part of testing and learning a new machine. Every fabric behaves differently, so adjusting the machine or simply replacing the needle to better suit the fabric or to change when the needle is dull is all that's needed to correct the skip. Keeping the presser foot level going over bulky seams is another way to help avoid skipped stitches. It doesn't mean anything is wrong with the machine or the sewist.
@@margaritasandoval1666 please see my response above, which I hope will allay any doubts about the machine. Perhaps arrange a test drive with a nearby dealer to test it out for yourself. Happy Sewing!
I just saw this in my local shop today! It looks amazing! I went in to switch to a different brand after using your Janome 1000cp for a few years. I've tried absolutely everything and it still skips stitches. It skips just randomly, not even on seams. I've heard of a lot of other people having the same issue. I'd really love to get this new one and not have to switch brands and still be able to use your baseplate and binding attachments. But I'm still nervous about skipped stitches!
This is indeed a fabulous machine! Skipped Stitches are often caused by dull or incorrect needles used, improper threading, stretching the fabric too much while sewing. For delicate, or slippery 4 way stretch knits, I often use Madeira's water solvable stabilizer on top of my fabric, which helps control the stretch of the fabric and eliminates skipped stitches. The bulk of the stabilizer can be torn, or cut away, then the rest between the stitches just dissolves in water.
I’ve new best quality recommended schmetts needles, not stretching, using hump jumper and still getting poor stitches on knits. I PARTICULARLY want it for knits.
I have been waiting for this. I had the 1200D combo machine and it was nothing but a headache. It was so finiky. My only question is will this machine then have all those ‘guides’ that that 1200D had to align different elastics with fabric? I am calling my sewing store today to inquire.
HI Christine! YES! We've been waiting for this machine, too and are SEW excited it's HERE! YAY! There are a few guides which will indeed help guide the fabric. It's a fabulous machine!
Very informative, thank you. I got the original 1000Cp over a decade ago and a few fancy feet. It sounds like Janome has kept the 3 needle models consistent so that my feet would still work with the 3000. Am I understanding this correctly?
Hi, I am looking for machine to do hems for strethy cotton jersey leggings and t shirts. I see a lot of tests has been made on firm fabrics but none on knitted fabrics. Will this machine do a good stitch on jersey? Anyone has tried? Any inputs are appreciated! I have heard that home "plastic" machines are not very good with jersey coverstitching (skipped stitches & other troubles), although it was years ago, hopefully now technologies has improved?
Hi! Will the machine be able to sew several layers of thick fleece and interlock together (if I want a nice finish for the cuffs on a lined children's jacket) ? What about faux fur with a short pile ? I sew clothes for my grandchildren and this is important to me.
The CP3000P has a few feed dog system to help feed thicker layers, but you can also adjust the pressure of the presser foot, which will help feed thicker layers more easily. Lengthening the stitch will help, as well.
No, they are two different stitch techniques, but, if butting the two pieces of fabric together, you could do the Top Cover stitch to join the two pieces of fabric together which would mimic the flatlock. The attachments of the CPX1000 and CPX2000 will indeed fit on the new CoverPro 3000P.
I no longer have the option to play a DVD on my machine, but I can play MP3 files because it can be stored on the drive. Is there an option to get the instruction video in this format? Thanks for your help. :)
Hi Grace, unfortunately the Janome Instructional disks are only available as a CD. External Hard Drives are not very expensive, so perhaps that might be an option for you to play the CD. Thank you for sharing the Janome Love!
You can slow down the machine by decreasing the pressure on the foot control. You can add a little spacer at the side or back of the foot control which prevents it being depressed all the way, which will allow it to run at a consistently slower speed.

puis-je savoir ou acheter et me documenter en français sur recouvreuse 3000 de Janome
Bonjour, oui, vous pouvez utiliser Google translate, comme je le fais, et utiliser les paramètres de You Tube pour générer automatiquement des sous-titres en français. Chaque machine vendue au Canada possède également un manuel d'instructions imprimé en français. Bonne couture !

Will the stitches lock at the end of all stitching or just the topstitching feature?
Ive just bought one today. Cannot wait to get started. you made this look so much more than the reason I bought the machine for. Thank you.

Thank you sew much for your feedback, Kathy! Thank you for sharing the Janome Love!
I just got mine 4 days ago. I absolutely love it. Stitches beautifully and changing the setup is fast and simple.
How does it handle going over seams? My 1000 skips stitches and that's my main complaint with it.

Wow ❤️
What is the clearance with the presser foot up and what is the additional or total clearance when you push the presser foot up all the way?

I still have a DVD player and enjoy using instructional DVDs. Not everyone in the world has access to good internet connectivity.
How does it handle multiple layers of denim? Will they fit under the foot? And will it sew over those jeans seams without skipping stitches?
At 10:24 i see skipped stitches on the side seem when the seem goes over the bulk of the fabric. This was often happening with my janome 1000cp and it seems it is still happening with this new model. Pity because the idea of top cover stitch was very appealing.

Thank you sew much! Yes! All the optional attachments for the CPX1000 and CPX2000 will fit on the new CoverPro 3000P. Happy Sewing!
Is the top coverstitch the same as a flatlock? Would my baseplate fit this new one?

Hi I’m in USA where to buy this machine
This looks like it could be a rebranded Singer made machine.
Can the foot pedal be slowed down on these machines. (2000cpx)
You can slow down the machine by decreasing the pressure on the foot control. You can add a little spacer at the side or back of the foot control which prevents it being depressed all the way, which will allow it to run at a consistently slower speed.

Can we use woolly thread 🧵 ( Seraflock, etc) or decorative thread?
Oh yes! There's endless choices available! Happy Sewing!
So this is why I picked up a 2000 so cheap LOL.
The CoverPro 2000CPX is not being discontinued, so it's great you got it for an extra-special deal! Thank you for sharing the Janome love!
If you stop and look at 10:24 you can see a skipped stitch!
