This machine has been designed for every type of sewing – everyday projects, home décor, high fashion, patchwork and quilting. The Skyline 5 has a 210mm wide x 120mm high workarea to the right of the needle giving you plenty of room to cope with those larger projects. With a great range of 200 stitches including a choice of 10 styles of buttonholes plus 4 alphabets, it offers creativity for every sewing project. Just flip up the top cover on the machine to view the huge variety of 9mm wide stitch styles available, plus ability to resume on the last stitch used. The stitch quality is excellent even at speeds of 1000 stitches per minute whilst the special built-in features will help you cope with almost any sewing challenge. Pivot on corners with the needle up/down feature, control the maximum sewing speed for precision work, trim off threads with the built-in automatic thread cutter, thread the needle automatically, whatever you need, to make sewing easier, and there is an extra wide table for those larger projects.
