I have a Janome 11000SE sewing/embroidery machine. The machine has built in embroidery designs for blocks that can be used with or without stipple background; and separate designs for all over stipple. Other quilting designs can be added with the software or purchased designs can be uploaded to the machine. In addition to the designs, the machine has an on board quilt layout calculator. Simply select a design, then enter the width and length of the quilt. The screen displays the number of times the quilt has to be hooped. The magnetic hoops that came with my machine make it easy to firmly hoop and easily rehoop. No basting or stabilizer necessary.
