Fast speeds and smart design make the 1600P-QC the perfect machine for sewing and quilting! You'll find everything you need to complete projects quickly and easily: Speeds of 1,600 stitches per minute make this the fastest machine on the market; nearly 9" x 6" to the right of the needle gives an extra wide work area; the side-loading bobbin allows for easy access, even from a quilt frame; the automatic thread cutter cuts top and bobbin thread at the push of a button; and the ergonomic knee lift offers a full range of adjustment so you can find the size that fits you.
Key Features
Presser Foot Sensor
This unique sensor system will not allow you to start sewing with the presser foot in UP position.
Memorized UP/DOWN Needle Setting
The exclusive Up/Down needle button lets you control the needle's position when you stop sewing. Set it for UP when you want to move your fabric; DOWN for corners and pivots.
Independent Bobbin Winder
The independent bobbin winder works separately from the main motor so you can fill your next bobbin while you sew.
