Is there a feature on the machine where you can program it to recognize if it had more than 7 different colors or would you have to watch the machine and tie on another color before it does the color change?
Good evening. I am looking at purchasing an embroidery machine and the MB-7 is about the most reasonably price multi-needle machine that I have found. Unfortunately though, no one has been able to answer my question on the specific work that I plan to use the machine for. I am hoping that you would be able to answer this for me. My wife does alterations and one of the services that we want to start offering is military name tape embroidery. To clarify, I am referring to the name tapes that you see on the camouflage uniforms for Marine Corps, Army and Navy. Can this machine do this task?
Yes, any of our multi-needle or single needle embroidery machines are capable of embroidering on cotton twill tape or similar. We do not manufacture a hoop that fits narrow pieces. Also, please note we only manufacture machines for domestic use, not for industrial or business use. Our warranty reflects this as it is domestic-use only. Thank you.
Jamie, our machines are calibrated with the Janome/Organ brand needles, we recommend them for the best performance of your MB-7. They come in size 9, 11, and 14, please see your local authorized Janome dealer to purchase.
Sonny, there is a handwheel on the side of the machine, which raises and lowers the needles manually. On the back of the machine, there are a few function buttons for winding bobbins and the power switch.
Hello I have problems with my MB4S , all my designs are embroidered distorted and not aligned, I follow the instructions in the manual, fix the tension, the fabric is well stretched, but I can't fix it, I use the stabilizer that come with the embroidery machine.... can someone please help me?
Why do I keep having issues with not reading my design on my usb. I have a mb4s the correct usb gb... the design file size is not too big.. what else can I do?
It is difficulty to troubleshoot virtually, but have you tried using another USB stick? Sometimes the sticks can get corrupted. Also make sure it's the proper design type (.jef, etc) and fits within the hoop you are choosing for the product.
Shadrack, see a dealer near you for pricing and to purchase. Please go to www.janome.com/find-a-dealer/ to find your closest authorized Janome dealer in the United States. Happy Stitching!
Hello, yes, the hat hoop is an optional accessory for this machine. To view all of the accessories, both standard and optional, please visit: www.janome.com/machines/embroidery/mb-7/
@@lynevans4855, gotcha, and yes the support extension piece shown in the video is the same for the MB4 I believe as the machines appear to be the same size.
I cant get the designs I make for the M1 hoop to show up on the machine. I made sure that the size of the design is within the size of the hoop. I've tried using a design and slowly adding things to make it bigger and as soon as it is taller than 6 inches it stops showing up on the machine. the design i have is 5.6 x 7.9 which is within the hoop size of 9.4 x 7.9 asn no mater what i cant see it when it uses the entire hoop space. any advise?
so at 7.9 inchs tall my software (Hatch) says the design as exceeded maximum valiud stitch area. which i don't understand because jenomies site says the machine can embroider sizes up to 9.4 x 7.9
Thank you for your comment. We are using embroidery thread from Hilos-Iris, a poly thread we sell for use in this machine and other embroidery machines. This model does not have an automatic threader so yes, you do need to thread it yourself. Happy Sewing!
I love my new embroidery machine .
Thank you for this video.
We're happy to hear this Yvonne, happy embroidering!
Do you still have the machine? I’m thinking in getting it…
I love embroidering with this machine! Thank you for all your videos!
How long can the machine go maximum everyday , does it operate 5 hours maximum per day
Thankyou for explaining this machine. Your demonstration was very easy to understand and very informative.
loved watching your video and was wondering if you could show how the oiling is done. Thanks
I love my machine. Working on 3D cap embroidery…
Great to hear that Yvonne! Happy Embroidering!
Is there a feature on the machine where you can program it to recognize if it had more than 7 different colors or would you have to watch the machine and tie on another color before it does the color change?
How does this machine compare to the Brother PR series 6 and 10 needle machines?
Can you give advice on setting tension and getting machine going for new user to multiple needle machine.
Sandra, the authorized Janome dealer where you purchased your machine should be able to assist you in getting started with this model. Happy Sewing!
I was wondering if you could embroider on rope coaster’s with the mb7. Thanks
Yes, absolutely. We recommend using a wash-away topper when embroidering on coiled rope products to ensure the stitches do not hide in the rope.
Does the image have to be at center or can you move where on the hoop you want the design to be, from the screen?

@@gypsyrobin I was wondering about the support or extension table you added to the mb7 under the hat hoop. Sorry for the confusion
@@lynevans4855 Lyn there is an optional support table for the MB7. Good for flat items. Easy to take off for those odd shaped items.

HT hooping system is horrible
wrong thread for a video. it looks like you will have to literally put the thread through the eye of the needle yourself. not good!
